Community Insight:
Love the challenge. No/very few ads. Ive played this game for several years. Its a keeper.
We play this game everyday. Its challenging, fast & fun.
They dont say it in the app but some games are unwinnable. But there are zero ads and zero fluff and filler just open the app and play the game. 5 stars for that, its a rare thing nowadays.
Been playing for years, but we bought a new phone and the ad banner was covering the cards. We contacted the developer and we never figured Id get a response. Got one immediately. We emailed screenshots and they quickly figured out it was because Im lazy and hadnt updated the app in forever. Its a solitaire app… We never expected such a great level of support. We dont write reviews, but we felt compelled to write this one. Excellent customer service.
Ive been playing the game on this App for a long time. Always fun and challenging.
Ive been playing for years, but the last month or so, we just cant get past the first 4 or 4 moves. We love a challenge, but this has become way too frustrating. Lighten up a little with some playable hands.
Kings only move to empty rows now? We'll, the option to not follow the rules of Russian Solitaire and once again move kings onto face down cards has been added to the menu. 5 stars. Don't need all that clever teenage snark in your response if you're going to fix the problem huh.
Love this one. Very challenging and frustrating but excellent game.
We know when we have no moves left, duh. What we don't know is why after the latest update we cant move the kings.
Love this game and 40 thieves by same developer. Never gets boring.
Exactly what it says it is. No more, no less. Not sure why people are complaining about ads, we've only seen a few.
The individual version is much better than the one in the big package. Bigger playing field. Experiment to find style and looseness to fit screen, not just size of cards. Ads rudely interrupt play.
We are wasting our life on this game.
Always been a fan of Russian Solitaire and we love having it on our iPhone. Very addicting. Fur suuuuurrrrrrrre.
We've played regular solitaire for years and now it seems totally boring compared to this game..keeps us thinking, keeps us challenged. We absolutely love it.
We enjoy this addictive game for the challenges and it is a constant in our game cabinet.
We really enjoy this game. It's hard enough to win that we want to play it again and again. You can win occasionally, which makes us feel great when we do.
This game is hard to win and for us we like that. It is too boring if a game is easily won.
Love this game! Play it for hours.
But we like challenging games so this is perfect for us, definitely not boring we get stuck a lot.
This is a tough one to win and we have to give up so many times when we're stuck, but that's what makes it SO great when we DO win.
We love playing Russian Solitaire, but the constant switch to the ads is driving us crazy! We're looking for an app to purchase without the ads.
Even though if can take awhile to win.
Add option to indicate when there are no remaining moves. Add option to only deal winnable games.
We like the fact that the game can now be played horizontally on the iPad, but we have had two occasions when the screen went blank, with no deck, only the green background. The iPad had to be shut down and restarted before the deck reappeared. The stats on the current game were not lost, but we had never encountered that glitch on the earlier version.
Love this game! But the new version has some bugs we hope will be fixed. It is hard to scroll the screen up or down and even impossible to scroll down at times. Frustrating.
We absolutely love this app. Works great every time. It's definitely on our must have list. Give it a try.
Our favorite game very hard but we win and we are happy we love this game.
After upgrading our iPhone, suddenly the cards cannot be spaced as loosely as before. We find this to be jarring, visually, and difficult to play. It might be enough to drive us to a different solitaire app.
Fun game, frustrating but fun when you finally beat it.
Omg we love this app solitaire is so addictive and they give it to u in all varieties love this app.
Really enjoy the various versions these Guys have come up with. Never heard of most of them. Check them all out.
Our favorite…very addicting…could play for hours.
Makes you want to play just one more game.
Overcome the frustration and enjoy the fun that follows.
We used to play this game on our Palm. The top menu does not display, so we cannot start a new game or see the score, etc.
This game works beautifully on our iTouch and we love playing it! However, when we loaded it onto our iPad, it doesn't work AT ALL!!! When we click on the icon, the game tries to open, then within two seconds, closes itself. The other "Just Solitaire" games work very well on both the iTouch and iPad. Please fix the Russian Solitaire game so it works, too.
