Solebon Solitaire App Reviews

Love Solebon on my iPhone and iPod Touch, but what has happened to the ability to move multiple cards at once? Being stuck moving one at a time seems so... Eighties. Please fix this and it will be perfect!

This is a beautiful looking game you got here. It would be nice to have some card sounds though. Other than no sound, you have done a great job on this...Keep up the great work.

Other then Freecell where for some reason you cant select multiple cards the game is perfect. I would have given it 5 stars if not for that. It is smooth, works ALL the time, perfect game other then the Freecell issue.

Ive been playing this version of the game since my early Blackberry days, also and now have it on my iPod and iMac. Would love to see a way to have the game track records for more than one player since i dont want my wife lowering my score. ;)

For freecell, you must move each card individually to the reserve stack. It slows down play so much it destroys the fun. Freecell is to be a nice diversion. This version makes it a tortuous time waster. No comment on other games, but if you want a freecell game, DONT BUY IT.

With this recent update, Smallware makes a great game even better! If youre looking for a great game of Solitare you wont be sorry going with this.

Hi, this is the developer. Since there isnt a mechanism to help players by responding to comments in the reviews, were hoping to use this review to clear up any questions we find here. If you need to contact us, please use the "Solebon Solitaire Support" link at the top-right of this store page above the "Information" block. Thanks! - Dragging cards with a trackpad can be a problem. If you prefer to not drag cards, just click a card and it will highlight. Then click where you want the highlighted card to move and it will go there. No dragging required! - The auto play button sends available cards to foundations. If you want to send just one card to a foundation, double-click the card and it will move.

Why not add simple shuffle and move sound effects? Can have an option to turn on or off for those that want silence. And would be nice if you had an option to use classic designed cards. Dont really need stylized "big number" cards on a big computer screen like you do on an iPhone. Again, give an option. Many of the iPhone and iPad solitaire games have many card designs to choose from. You should add more options. Top 10 high scores would be nice too.

I just downloaded this app and had to force quit twice in a row, because it wont launch on my year old and still-in-love-with-it, Mac.

Definitly worth the price! Alot of games for cheap....=) AWsome...=D

Its OK but has some annoying quirks. It always seems to start on the non-primary monitor. Im getting used to the iPad model where things move more automatically and you dont have to drag things. Its getting to be a drag to have to drag cards around. Right click sometimes doesnt work as it should. It usually automatically moves the card to the build pile but sometimes it just highlights the card and doesnt move it.

Since Lion rendered Solitaire Till Dawn obsolete, I had to find a good replacement. Solebon in general is pretty good - very smooth action, clean interface, good selection of games. In Miss Milligan, however, the reserve stack doesnt work, so the game is unplayable. This is one of my favorites, so Im disappointed. Id also like to see them add Manx as a game.

I wish that when a game is at the point when it is unwinnable, there should be a notice. For example, in Accordian, when there are no more moves left it would be nice to know, and then the player can either restart, undo, or start a new game.

This is truly a great collection of card games, so many games that its hard to imagine playing them all. I only wanted a regular (Klondike) solitaire game and a Spider Solitare game which were as close to the Windows versions as possible. I read through the history of the company and reviews of this game package, and thought Id found exactly what I was after. And, in general, I did. But there is one difference in the Spider game from the Windows version which I consider a flaw, and which has made me get a refund for this collection. That is this: when you want to move cards from one pile (tableau) to another, you can only move the bottom card on the sequence, not the entire sequence. So, if you have red 8 - black 7 on one pile, and red 6 - black 5 - red 4 on another, you cant move the entire sequence (red 6 - black 5 - red 4) to the black 7 on the other pile. You can only move the red 4 to another pile (onto a black 5). To me, that is a limitation and design flaw. There are differences in rules between different implementations of the Spider game, but this one is pretty basic, and should be the same as the Windows version. At least, there should be an option to allow this. Unfortunately, this makes the game unplayable to me, and as a result, the entire package is not worthwhile, especially when you have to pay 5 bucks for it. If this is changed in the next version, Ill buy it again. But not until then.

So many different games - so many hours of enjoyment. Ive loved this app on my iPhone for years and finally bought it for my MacBook. No matter what mood Im in - whether I want a mindless game or one that challenges me with total concentration - I always find the perfect game. Worth every dollar! If youre tired of common solitaire, invest in this app. Youll never be bored or dissappointed.

This game looks nice, but if youve got an 11" Macbook Air, you cant see the bottom bar. And if you cant see that, there are hidden options and data. You cant resize the window at all to fix this, which is pretty ridiculous.

This is a really nice card game suite for the mac. I bought it because I was so impressed with their iPhone/ipad solitaire game, and I am not dissatisifed with my purchase. If I could offer one request to the dev team, it would be to implement full screen spaces — I use that with alot of other apps, and would be useful here too.

Like golf, solitaire is a game you play against yourself. (Remember the handicap in golf, which results in your playing against your past scores.) In our hyper-competitive world, many developers have tried to turn solitaire into still another form of competitition with others. They compare your results on a game against everyone elses world-wide. As a result, they won’t let you replay a game. For some, that may be great, but for many of us it loses its real essence that way. Both on iOS and OSX, Solebon gets back to the roots of solitare. You can restart games to try different approaches, something you have great difficulty doing with “real” cards, for examples. It improves your problem solving skills in the process. I have stopped playing all the other solitaire apps on both platforms. And there are a lot of games ranging in difficulty so you can match both your skill level and your mood.

Kind of disappointed. I have this on my iPad and my iPhone. I play it a lot. The Mac version isn’t half what the iPad version is. Three of my favorite games aren’t here. If you’re buying this because you like the iPad version, you will be disappointed too. BUT, even though I’m missing some of my favorite games, THIS IS A GREAT APP. It’s not fancy, but it works and I love it. I will swtich back to playing on my iPad for now.

Could be more games and choices on different games.
