iPad 9 running iPadOS 26
This is actually a great spin on an old favorite. I highly recommend it. Timely support is available for those who need it. My hardware is quickly becoming outdated with the switch to m-series iPads. I’m not happy with my iPad’s performance on iPadOS 26. I should have remained on iPadOS 18. That said, with a refreshed install of iPadOS and with all assets downloaded, this game is now very playable with only a few lags here and there.
genAI Images
Deeply disappointed to realize that my favorite solitaire game - one that seemed to employ real human artists in the beginning - has turned to using generative ai images in the game’s events.
Love tjis game but...
After recent update, my card backs are not changing. The only deck playing is my custom deck.
Good game!
Recommend this to people who loves puzzles and are looking for a challenge.
Ai
Don’t know what yalls policy is on Ai generated art, but maybe don’t do that for cards. Like the new intergalactic event.
Is there a bug?
This is my fav solitaire app. But right now when I open the app it freezes and wont let me select any methods to play. I even uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. Tried wifi and cellular data. Still nothing is working T^T
Buggy progress
Finished an event, earned my first deck and decided to install the macOS version on my Mac to play there as well. When I launched it, it was as if I just started playing for the first time, the event I completed on my phone said “Play” on the Mac instead of “Replay” and when I checked on my phone I’m guessing the Mac save then synced to my phone because I didn’t have the deck I unlocked there either. Considering how long the event took to complete, that left me with a lack of confidence in long term reliability of save progress which for a game about collecting things, that’s a huge red flag
It passed the time
But I finished it. I got all the card decks and music so there’s no more “gum balls” to win. I played all the stories. Soooo…I guess that’s it 🤷🏻♀️
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!!
This is one of the funnest games I have been playing for a long time. So awesome! The story lines and traffics are really great. I LOVE THIS GAME!!
Freezes at splash screen
All of a sudden it freezes at a splash screen. For the last two days it was freezing randomly but now I can’t even get past the splash screen. Deleting the game and reinstalling didn’t help. Restarting phone didn’t either. Sucks as this is the only game I play with archade
Latest Update Buggy
After the recent update, progress constantly goes back to Chapter 1 Level 1 for the current story I had completed twice (Commotion At The Cat Cafe). I attempted to complete the whole story without taking a break but after I finished the last level, the app blacked out and crashed. Once again , the story got reset to Chapter 1 Level 1. This bug is ruining the game as it forces players to have to replay the completed levels without ever proceeding past Level 1. I’ve modified my review to 4 stars bc I really enjoy this game. Will bring it up to five once all bugs are cleared!
AI Slop “Art”
Aside from issues where the game sometimes won’t load beyond a black screen, they use very obviously AI-generated slop instead of art for some of the card backs and stories.
fun
But extremely hard decks
Love it
Maybe the best solitaire app. It has Klondike, spider, and tripeaks variants that you can freely swap between whenever you want with difficulty settings to choose from for quick play and story mode. It also has tons of cosmetics to unlock, so lots of customization options for visuals and sounds. The actual stories part doesn’t seem like it’ll last too long though. I’m seeing 7 total, and the one I’ve completed so far was extremely short, but maybe the rest are longer. Doing them unlocks additional customization. But even if the stories don’t go on forever, this is a great app to just play some solitaire. My only real complaint is I wish there were some additional layouts for the cards in tripeaks games.
Can’t open with new changes in graphics
Love this game, sad that I now can’t not play
Fun
I’ve only had it for a couple hours maybe only one and I already am obsessed🤩🤩🤩
Freezes on loading screen
Used to love this game but it hasn’t gotten past the loading screen in a few weeks.
A bug needs fixing
I love this game, but if you open a prize pod and you don’t hit the “use” button, you seem to loose the coins you spent and do not receive the item?? Ugh. I kept hitting the main menu button, thinking it didn’t matter and I’d still get the item, but that does not seem to be the case. Now I’m out 1000 coins and no prizes. What’s up with this?
addicting
i play around 1000 games a week (actually) i wish there was a freecell option, im hoping that comes with more updates
Good Game, updated and now crashes
I love playing this game, and have since i've been using my Apple Arcade subscription, but something with the new update prevents me from being able to launch the game on my Macbook. It's frustrating because i like the game overall. Will be changing to 5 stars if it actually can be launched again.
Love it
I really love this game, however, every time a I’m playing and it gets to the story part, it crashes. It also happens when I try to use the vending machine. Please help!
Not optimized for Macs or UW monitors
This is a mobile game, and it is obviously stretched to fit larger screens instead of customized for Macs. It’s definitely not made for ultrawide monitors. The menu is GIGANTIC (I could see it clearly from 5ft away, seriously) and scrolling means clicking and dragging. But the dealbreaker is that the top of the playing area is cut off. I could resolve this if there were display settings that allow me to change the resolution, but there aren’t any.
Pretty yet problematic game
This game is the most beautiful solitaire game. Good job. But as others have said, I too constantly run into unsolvable games. I used to play the default difficulty level, and because I was so frustrated to run into unsolvable game 5 times in a roll, I reduced the difficulty level to the lowest. I don’t care about challenges, I just wanna play couple of games on my commute. Yet I still run into unsolvable game multiple times in a roll, even if I always start a new game. Don’t reply like every game is solvable. I’m already at the lowest level of difficulty, and multiple failed games in a roll is not an “just try different” issue. It’s your game design issue. You should listen to your players and think about what you could do better.
Fun & relaxing
This is a fun and relaxing game.
Stops Working
I love playing this game, it’s fun and gives you something to work towards. But about 2 months ago it stopped working. It goes to a black screen when after each game. I thought I’d give it time because these things happen, but here I am 2 months later still wondering if the problem will be fixed.
The best solitaire apps ever made
It's the best solitaire apps I have ever tried, no 5 stars because I unsubscribe from apple arcade for a couple months and when I sub back all my progress was lost. If it does it again I'm quiting for good.
What happened?
I was excited to play this game but it crashed after two rounds and now won’t load.
Great game but could use some tweaking
Doesn’t seem to be an option to adjust the text size in stories for those with difficulty seeing. Otherwise it’s a great game.
谁能告诉我如何找回之前的记录😭
找回记录记录回家
Constant crashes
This used to be a great solitaire app. The stories and progression tracking were the best way to shut my brain down at night. Now it is so buggy it crashes after every game and requires a restart. I’ve waited through 2 updates and no fix.
Almost a 5
I almost gave it a 5, but it ran out of Stories already. Also, I wish that either the special timed events would give an option to complete them to finish the decks, maybe at a spend your coins type penalty option. I hate that being an adult & having to work instead of living on my phone takes priority & then I can’t complete my collection I worked hard to get done is gone forever. Maybe figure out a fix for that & it’d be 5 star all the way.
It’s ok
It would be better if it was good.
Can’t finish a tripeak game
When you beat the game it sits on the completion animation but no matter what it do it won’t end. Have to kill the app but you lose all progress. New iOS 17 bug?
A beautifully designed game
I was just playing the regular Solitaire game, but I came across this one and so I tried it out and I ended up liking it much better one because of the design of the game. I think it’s beautifully designed the cards the storytelling the customization it’s all great.
Stopped working on MacOS
Have been playing for a couple weeks and all of a sudden any time it goes to reload a deck it goes to a black screen. Was working fine until now.
Great game, shorter events please.
This is a beautiful, well-crafted game and encourage everyone to play it. My only request is to make the events shorter (e.g. 25 games). Often there is not enough time to finish them.
Glitch
It’s fun but out of the sudden everytime I try to open a puzzle it freezes so now I can’t play.
Great game except latest version doesn’t load

Clean Graphics
It’s a nice game with good background relaxing sound and smooth gameplay.
cheap and lazy
newest update involves blatantly ai generated art. i’m really disappointed
Overall great.
So far this has been the best Solitaire app game I’ve come across that matched my want for some story and gameplay that had some variance and challenge to it. I do wish there was a more cohesive rewards points system for using them such as multiple machine turns instead of one at a time and things to purchase without random chance. The deck builder is rather clunky to navigate. I would love if there was more of an RPG element in here somehow, but even without that, it’s still wonderful. There’s enough difficulty levels that I stay entertained and challenged, so I’m constantly playing games here and there when able.
Undergrowth Event?
I updated the game and completely lost the Undergrowth event. Is this gonna be fixed?? Doesn’t look like I was the only one
Please allow mute button
Hard to think such a simple decent game doesn't allow a user to mute sound and music. I often play simple card games while listening to music and podcasts. Have not found a way to do this with this app.
Amazing game!!!
I love the card customization and overall it’s just a really good game
Stingy without a cause
I used to win 2 coins for finishing a game under 2:20 min. But Apple is getting stingier and stingier! I just finished a game in 2:02 min and got one measley point. If Apple is going to be so stingy with their coins (like they’re going to lose something) then I’m not going to enjoy this game! That makes zero sense!
Delightful! With one issue
I love this solitaire app it’s easily my favorite they I’ve used the themes are cute and I loved the Greek myth set. Only issue is if I leave the app for a bit and then come back,when the little menu that says “do you want to continue your previous game”, when I try to continue it freezes. The only way to fix it is to close the app and choose no, and to start a new game
Lost the event.
I just updated to the latest version and have completely lost the undergrowth event. It only shows the next event starting on the 30th.
Random lags
Random lags 1-2 secs, multiple times in every minute of playing.
