Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
This is the only solitaire we have found with Shifted Cross, our favorite. Lena has just updated and fixed the cards jumping in some games like Sun. This game should get more attention.
Very nice designs, but unfortunately it doesnt display correctly on the newest iPad Air.
Have had this set of solitaire on our PC for 12+ years and it has brought many hours of pleasure. Still some we haven't tried. Had to get it on our iPad and it has been great. No ads, no interruptions, no gimmicks, just lots of fun. Best solitaire out there. Can even customize games and rules as well as card size, faces, backs and environment.
Beautiful illustrations enjoyed playing.
This is one fantastic game. Purchased it for our computer years ago and am very happy to see it as an iPad App. We have our favorite games, but overall, they are all great. Lena, you did a great job developing BigPatience and we thank you.
Love the variety of games, although there is a solitaire game that is missing! The name of it is ACORRDIAN, but we absolutely love this app, favorite game is YUKON.
Card sets are great, enjoy the variety of games. Play is great on the touch screen.
However would love to monitor our progress ie keep track of all of our times.
A lot of solitaire games we have never played. The game is very stable, no freezes. Good rules lay out easy to learn. We just wish we could figure out the pattern to tap cards instead of sliding to move, we can do but but only with 2 or 3 taps, very slow. Otherwise we would recommend highly, even worth paying a few dollars or it.
Finally found a great solitaire game with lots of different game options and a fantastic ability to modify game rules, etc. Love the different backgrounds and card options; this is the best solitaire game available if you are looking for more than just Klondike! Our only suggestion would be to make the card touch/tap ability more sensitive, we end up dragging when we'd prefer to tap.
