Solitaire Challenges – Board Game Review
Solitaire Challenges is a Board/Card/Entertainment game from Jose Varela, first launched in 2nd May 2013.
It’s rated 4+ and currently has 7+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Solitaire Challenges Stand Out
Solitaire Challenges is a card game that consists in clearing the board by taking a card that is one above or below than the card on the deck.
Among the 160 levels available to play, you would find several missions such as:
- Have a sequence of X number of cards.
- Obtain X points.
- Find the card-key to open the lock.
- Solve the game in X amount of time.
- Get a golden card by having a sequence of 5 cards.
- Solve 2 rounds of the game.
From level 5 you would have available a wild card, that you would be able to use any time replacing the card that you need. It's very useful for building long sequences.
Each card taken off from the board has a value of 100 points, and if it follows a sequence then its value would have 50 bonus points. This means that the longer the sequence is then more points you get.
Solitaire Challenges doesn't only involves luck but the skill of selecting the necessary cards to solve the game.
This Board game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
We are on level 157 so we obviously like the game, but we cannot figure out what needs to be done to achieve a score of over 23000. If it needs to do the whole puzzle consecutively without a stop, then say so.
We've completed level 42 several times but we never received a Mission Accomplished prompt thus we cannot advance to other levels. To make sure we understand the mission, we are to use the gold card as the 6th (or more) consecutive card before we run out and need another card from the deck to continue. Of courts we must also complete the game. In our case, when we complete the game nothing happens. We must go through the levels window to start a new game if we wish to continue playing. Hope you can fix it. We enjoy playing.
We love the game. We wish it had more than 5 lives or a way to win lives. The only problem so far is that it freezes up frequently. Please fix this bug! Thank you! Our favorite game but having trouble signing on. Please fix it! Thank you.
Now half screen covered with white!!should just delete this game,but do like the challenges it has.if not fixed soon-delete-delete.
It won't let us complete level 42. We have tried deleting the app and starting over, but it will NOT go past level 42. It just gets stuck and freezes.
5-life game, lots of fun, cool music. Works as advertised. :).
Love this app! Great interface, very nice layout, overall fun to play and joy to play. Please keep up the great work developer! 5+.
The best solitaria ….awesome..star play and don't stop.
Very well made tripeaks card game by this developer. We have played this game a lot today and have to admit it is a really nice game to play and lots of levels to get through. A must have game if you like Tripeaks. THANKS to the developer.
Why do we have to pay real money for the undo button when it usually comes with any other solitaire game.
Love the game but why doesn't it connect to your Facebook like candy crush does.
We agree with other posts– there are a few bugs to work out, but overall a good game that is challenging enough to keep us engaged but not too difficult to make us want to quit. PLEASE add more levels! (A few typos in game, including "serie" instead of "series").
If the last card is the one you need,it doesn't register and that drives kinda crazy especially when it's a level that's hard to pass! Other than that,we pretty much like it.
We like this game a lot but….it usually locks up and we can't make a move or finish the game. When it locks up we have to reset our phone which in turn starts us over to the very first game and we lose all the games we have beaten. Which by the way why can't we keep track of which game we are on? We look at the levels and it just repeats them over and over again then we can't seem to get out of that screen without resetting our phone. A few glitches that we wish would be fixed so we can really enjoy playing this game.
Good concept, but has problems. Lives sometimes decrease by 2 so instead of getting 5, sometimes we get to play 3 times before having to pay. Also, if you play the wild card at the end of the game, to play one remaining card, it doesn't register and you lose the round.
The game locks up quite a bit. In order to stay at the level you're at when it locks, is to quit the app.
It's always messing up canceling the game Fix it please.
