Calm Cards - Klondike

I bought this game mostly to replace Microsoft's really horrible Solitaire suite, with its terrible, unstoppable ads and frankly ridiculous subscription based pricing if one wants not to be assaulted by terrible, unstoppable ads. It's been such a pleasant surprise because it strips out everything extraneous about klondike solitaire. No timer, no auto solve, no undo, no hints. It's a pleasant reminder of the fact that I play solitaire to help myself think, and it makes the game more meditative and pleasant. The only thing I guess I wish it had is maybe a magnetic mouse, so that there's less clicking and dragging of cards, but that's almost entirely personal preference.

I bought the game for the same reason as PreludeInZ and share his positive response to the game. No pressure enjoyment of a relaxing pastime was what I was looking for and this game delivers just that. If you are looking for a game of that type give this one a try.

10/10 Needs "No More Moves" notice. 1 or 3 card draw. Full Mouse-control. No auto-solve. 1 background. 2 decks. No card Modding.

This is a mediocre implementation of Klondike solitaire. This is another game where I really wish Steam had a neutral option as while the game is not so bad as to get a thumbs down, it's too 'meh' to really qualify for a thumbs up. The game works. It's probably worth the $3 for that. It also doesn't have any advertisements or other annoyances that versions of Klondike such as Microsoft's doe. Negatives, all of which I think take away from the "relaxing" idea:[list] [*]When the cards are dealt, nothing is flipped over and you have to flip the top card in each stack manually. This is slow due to the animation you have to wait through. [*]If you move a card off of a stack, you have to flip the top card manually. [*]There is no undo button if you make a mistake. [*]There are two card options: One that is ugly and one that you cannot read the other cards in a stack because the numbers are covered. [*]You cannot double-click on a card to have it automatically move to the ace through king pile.[/list] The option to choose between draw-1 and drow-3 was unclear. The option that looked to me should be selecting draw-3 was actually the draw-1. A minor nitpick is that I like to have …
