[b]broken, don't bother.[/b] unique take on solitaire otherwise, rules are explained in-game. instead of building stacks, you place cards fished from a river next to each other in the usual +1/-1 fashion, creating a garden of sorts. it's a side hustle for a kid, so there's a bit of narrative too. not sure how many levels, there's a 'relax mode' with no-fail gameplay, jokers and wildcards and other stuff. unfortunately, the game doesn't seem to play along with I'd say modern operating systems (it's from 2006), except I'm on win7 and it doesn't even work there, let alone probably anything from the last decade. it only becomes responsive after alt+tabbing, can't enter a name or move the cursor otherwise. then it froze completely on level 1 after clicking around a bit, waiting for the very first card to show up, even though (or probably because) the river moves a lot faster than it's supposed to. tried again, windowed mode this time (still had to switch tasks a bunch), got a prompt to pick up a card, but it was just a red circle around nothing, then it froze again. separate volumes, non-resizable windowed mode (runs in 1024x768, so you get that in a window), hints toggle, but since …
