I enjoy playing games through this developer and this was brighter to play than all the other Solitaire games that I have played. The thing I liked was the music change as well without the same music looping throughout the games

I recommend this game!

Yes, I am delighted to see another 8Floor game. Love them.
Some are harder than others and even though they are "the same" in some respects, they are still fun to play.

I recommend this game!

I enjoyed playing the demo. The game is a higher/lower solitaire with a variety of layouts which keep it interesting. The graphics were colorful and the contrast between the cards and the background was great. I didn't encounter any confusing layouts, at least in the demo. I didn't try the different card decks so I can't speak to those. The music wasn't annoying but that's not a biggie for me ...Show more

I enjoyed playing the demo. The game is a higher/lower solitaire with a variety of layouts which keep it interesting. The graphics were colorful and the contrast between the cards and the background was great. I didn't encounter any confusing layouts, at least in the demo. I didn't try the different card decks so I can't speak to those. The music wasn't annoying but that's not a biggie for me anyway. If I don't like it, I just turn it off.

What was annoying was the break in the game play every time you got a bonus. The game pauses while the bonus is displayed. You have to wait for this to go away and then there is another slight pause before you can resume play. This almost made it a complete no go for me. Such a little thing but it can ruin a pretty decent game.

The levels went from super easy one level to almost impossible on the next. I felt like the cards that were dealt were completely random so you just have to keep playing until you get a winnable hand. I had to play several of the levels 4-6 times before I was dealt a passable hand. You can buy items such as jokers, shuffles and mulligans which can help on some of the harder levels.

I've played better solitaire games than this. However, since I only played the demo, I don't know if the game gets harder or if there are any other items you can buy or accumulate as you progress. I haven't decided if I'll get the game or not. I enjoyed the demo, but enough to buy the game? I don't know. I would suggest you try it before you hit the buy button. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

This games got a lot of mixed reviews but I took a chance & bought the game. The first section -- there was 6 -- was easy but I could not get through the 2nd section. I played those games over & over -- got nowhere fast. I give up.

I recommend this game!

This is exactly like their other games, even the same solitaire games, the only difference is the background. Won't be a buy for me.

I don't recommend this game.

I'll probably just be chilling with my gnomies or hanging with my gnombres instead, gnome saying? Everyone gnomes I'm not a fan of this type of solitaire game.

I wish I had gnome this would be today's release, I hope someone loves this game, but it appears gnome body does. I'll probably just be chilling with my gnomies or hanging with my gnombres instead, gnome saying? Everyone gnomes I'm not a fan of this type of solitaire game. I keep telling this developer "you've gotta go big, or go gnome... sweet gnome", (or was it gnome on the range?) I tell them, this type of solitaire game is gnome-sense, it's not like the game is sitting on the shelf at the local Gnome Depot! But they always reply that "good things come to gnomes who wait, so gnome worry, just be happy you're not gnome all alone" OH, Gnome they didn't!

I gnome not what they are speaking of but I'm gnome body's fool! I gnome I'm not making much sense here, so hopefully, I gnome you well enough to tell you a little bit about myself. I'm from Gnome, Alaska, and you gnome what they say... all roads lead to Gnome! I once started a Gnome Fund Me page to raise money for gnomeless gnomes, but gnome body donated? I also love to sing, my favorite song is Sweet Gnome Alabama, and I've been gnome to sing till the cows come gnome. You probably gnome me best from my reviews, however, because I like to write in my gnome words.

I hope you enjoyed a little bit of humor today, it's gotta be better than another mass-produced solitaire game that is identical to every other game "created" by this developer! I use the term "created" lightly because they don't actually create any new games, they just rename them and change the graphics...gnome saying?

You can choose from 9 card backs, none of which are even remotely appealing, and 3 different face cards, one of which is a large font. You begin the game in Newbie mode, which allows you to replay any hand, Professional mode only allows you to replay the entire pack of 10 levels. There are 12 different Packs, and each pack has 10 levels, you need to earn the specified amount of points to unlock the next pack, and the scoring is similar to bowling.

Have you ever noticed that the tutorial makes you click another card off of the deck even though there are several playable cards remaining on the board? I'm reluctant to skip the tutorial just in case they have added a new random feature, but alas, it never happens, this is how the story gnomes :(

The Bonus Cards are one of the most annoying features they have because every time you remove a Bonus Card the screen freezes for what seems like an eternity just so you can get a good hard look at that sucker! Most of the time it gives you +499 extra points, but occasionally, a Joker, Shuffle, or a Mulligan (undo feature). Finding two of these cards back has been gnome to drive players insane.

Quick, pretend you're still playing this game and sneak on over to The Woods Forum while gnomes paying attention: thewoodsforum.boards.net Show less

I don't recommend this game.

I love solitaire games but I do like to be able to complete a level yet you never can with these games.

Always the same mechanics and why are the cards always so small? We don't all have 20/20 vision.
I play many different developers solitaire games and these are always the smallest cards.
We don't all have large screens.

I do appreciate that some people may like these games but how many times do you buy the same book just because the cover has changed ?

Try the demo as we all think differently and enjoy different things but for me it is a no and I remain hopeful thet one day things may change, and I don't mean a new prescription for my glasses Show less

I don't recommend this game.

Same old stuff. It never gets any better. I do play the demos thinking that maybe they will interject something different and fun but that never happens. And it just isn't going to, is it?! The thing that really spoils the game is the scads of Gold Cards.

The cards are so strategically placed that you are flat out set up to fail in your attempt to clear the table. Since removing all the cards is the goal in solitaire I don't see the point of playing a game that doesn't allow me to do so.

The graphics were very juvenile, there was a decent variety of colorful card backs, the music was too bubbly. The synopsis really exaggerates in the game's description! The only dangers and pitfalls here are falling victim to boredom and Gold Card-itis! I did not see any of those stunning visuals, nor did I find any of the tons of rare items to collect. Why make false claims? I did play 8 levels, but just couldn't make myself go any further as I didn't anticipate any fun ahead! Show less

I don't recommend this game.

Why do solitaire games from this dev always have the same layout, nothing new. Also it bugs me that you can have 4 8's on the screen then find another 4 in the deck, that's not a pack of cards or part or a pack by any stretch of the imagination. Quite glitchy in parts too but that could be my computer although it has all that is required.

I don't recommend this game.

Same old go-for-the-gold cards game. For me that is not a true solitaire. Tacky graphics and much of the music is quite irritating so turn down volume. Pass on this one.
