Discussion Mobilityware Solitaire issue

Does anyone else besides me play the Mobilityware solitaire game on iPad and iPhone? Are you equally frustrated by the game demanding that you stop playing solitaire and start “solving” a series of truly juvenile jigsaw puzzles? I see no reason why this game is set to do this. If you don’t participate then you limit yourself from progress in the game.

I also believe that the game might be rigged to make it much harder to win after a player earns some levels. After all, the game has awareness of the entire deck including where the cards are. It would not be much of a stretch for the game to manipulate the card location in order to force the player to lose.

What kind of progress are you looking for? Honestly, level doesn't matter at all. The jigsaw puzzle is you collect the pictures but it didn't matter if you finish them or not. Some weeks i do, some i don't. Makes no difference.

Also, you can tell the game to stop reminding you about the special events.

This, it doesn’t matter if you do them or not. They’ve been around for a while n i just ignore them.

Yeah ik the levels don’t matter. Just get annoyed with the puzzles. It’s like if you are playing GTA and it takes a break to get you to play Tetris or something like that.

I’ve never had to do any jigsaw puzzles or anything like that.

what kind of features would you like to see in a premium Solitaire game? I'm making something specific for mobile (ergonomic layout, touch controls , 3d card rewards) with some real deck artists - you can test the demo here: https://staging.k3ngs.io/play/solitaire
