I never thought I'd become a Solitaire Guy™ but here I am in love with a collection of solitaire and solitaire-likes from a developer whose other games I'm too stupid to play. In order; [i] Sayawama Solitaire [/i] A more refined and quicker version of Klondike, it tricks you into thinking that letting you to play any card in the freecell or empty column would make it easier, but it's just more options to block yourself. The most classic of the collection and the best starting point. [i] Sigmar’s Garden [/i] Not really solitaire in the literal sense, more of a complex match up game, the whole board is visible so you can spend some time thinking about your moves. I didn't really gel with this one, but lots of people exclusively place this. [i] Proletariat’s Patience [/i] Similar to Shenzen Solitaire but without the freecell. It's very easy to restrict your options quickly by locking away precious columns. Very cool aesthetic. [i] Cribbage Solitaire [/i] Pretty standard cribbage...

great solitaire collection
Such a good solitare collection. Every game has it's own set of rules, some are a twist on classics, some stray far from it, but each one is so addicting. Graphics and performance is excellent too.
fortune's foundation is probably the best mode by far, and i think is one of the most appropriate uses of tarot cards
if you buy this on the developer's website you get a mobile version
The Zachtronics Solitaire Collection is a thoughtful, charming, and surprisingly deep anthology of solitaire games that distills the quirky, brainy DNA of Zachtronics into a package far more meditative than the studio’s usual fare. Known for their complex programming puzzlers like Opus Magnum, TIS-100, and Shenzhen I/O, Zachtronics has always included solitaire variants as hidden or optional diversions within their larger titles. This standalone collection, then, feels like both a nostalgic tribute and a curated final statement—gathering these mini-games in one polished, accessible place while offering a final new entry to cap off their body of work. At first glance, the idea of a solitaire compilation might sound quaint or even underwhelming, especially from a studio with a reputation for programming complexity and systems-driven design. But each game here is far from a traditional card puzzle. These are not clones of Klondike or Spider—each solitaire variant has unique rules, ...
Humble solitaire game, sometimes you need to just sit down and play a good few rounds. Plenty of games, ranging from easy to hard. Pleasing aesthetics, what you see is what you get, but very fun. In an age of mediocre games, solitaire remains strong and eternal.
Incredible solitaire game that I really shouldn't have bought because I am playing it all the dang time
I have played a lot of solitaire and most of that solitaire was played here.
Great game. Very interesting puzzler. Would highly recommend. Suggested Changes: -A lesser difficulty mode with take backs -A feature that tells you whether a deal is solvable, or whether it becomes unsolvable during play
