This CD is truly solitaire lovers heaven! It has 71, that’s right, 71 games!In Game Setup you will find the games broken down into the following skill categories— “All” (shows all 71), “Easy” (13), “Moderate” (28), “Difficult” (25), and “Games for Kids” (5). I really like that whenever I highlight a game in any category it gives a very brief description of the game. All games can be played in normal or tutorial mode. This is a wonderful feature which enabled me to try games of which I would otherwise been a bit hesitant.
When I clicked on Theme Setup I found background themes (14), and back-of-card designs (15), mine for the clicking. But the thing that impressed me most was that I had a choice of three card sizes! They were EZ See Lo Vision, Regular, and Jumbo. I also had my choice of 5 tracks of music or using my own CD music and voice.
Next I went to Player setup and typed in my handle and was given a list of 10 pictures. From these pictures I picked one to represent me. I also had the choice of my portrait being animated or not. That was really fun!
There is so much fun stuff before you ever get to the games you could spend many happy hours just trying out all the choices you are given! I learned a couple of new games and played many old favorites. I tried out all 71 games but must say many of them I did not win.
Online setup—The last really important feature is the Online Setup. This feature lets you play online with real live opponents! I haven’t tried that. I don’t feel I’m good enough yet to let others see how bad I am.
This is a very definite MUST BUY for solitaire lovers and is available for $14.99 through the Expert website http://www.expertsoftware.com.. _NextPart_000_0007_01BF454D.17504C80
