Winterscapes is an incredibly beautiful game that has about 200 levels of Higher/Lower Solitaire and 30 Bonus Levels, but it also has 12 different Solitaire types of Bonus Levels to unlock! The Bonus Levels include Emperor, Blockade, Simple Simon, Carre Napoleon, Brigade, Yukon, Triple Line, Streets Redeal, Twin Queens, The Red and the Black, Q.C. Patience, and Alerian Patience making this game well worth the money!

You can choose from 4 different wintery scene Card Backs and 3 different Font styles, an Icy graphic, an Animated graphic with Kings and Queens and a Vintage graphic style. You can play in a Normal Solitaire Mode, a Hard Mode with a Timer, and a Relaxed Mode which gives you more than one deal. There are 24 Achievement Trophies to earn for choosing a Custom Cursor, Replaying a Level, Watching the Credits, setting Wallpapers and even for Removing 5 Cards in 5 Seconds.

The goal is to Remove Cards that are either one Higher or one Lower and to Collect Emeralds which allows you to purchase sections of 6 different Wintery Castle Scenes that can also be set as Wallpapers. I loved that the section to purchase scenery doesn't appear unless you have enough Emeralds to actually purchase something and that the Level Map shows you how many Emeralds are available on each level. Some Cards contains Coins that can be used in the Shop to purchase Power-ups and Wildcards. Combo's start at 5 Cards and each level gives you 1 Undo. You can earn up to 3 Stars per level and you Replay the levels as often as you want to try to remove all of the Cards (not just special cards like other games) I love that the Score Window pops up quickly and all the stars you earned are added immediately, not one by one and painstakingly slow)

There are several types of Obstacles, Locks that require you to remove the Key Card, Frozen Cards that require two Plays, Chains that require removing the Hammer Card, Ribbons that require removing Scissor Cards, Vines that require removing the Sickle Cards, Red and Black Seals that require removing Red and Black Cards, and Red and Black Suit Specific Cards that require removing Specific Suit Cards.

The Coins can be used in the Shop to purchase a Deck Card Counter, Remove a Random Card, Remove a Specific Card, Show all Face Down Cards, Extra Shuffle, and Undo features, Card Specific Wildcards, Jokers, and the Chance to Receive Wildcards and Jokers during the Levels.

This is how a Solitaire Game should be! It has beautiful graphics, soothing unobtrusive music playing in the background, Wallpapers that are stunning, Features that are exactly the way I want them to be, (especially the ability to remove all of the cards and replay the levels) obtainable Achievements that you actually want to earn, Customizable with different Difficulty Modes available, and it includes 12 different Types of Solitaire! I can't think of a single complaint!

I love the Jewel Match Solitaire series, and they have come through beautifully with this one. The scenery is lovely, and the card sets are beautiful. I even don't mind the traditional Christmas Carols playing in the background - in fact I find them quite relaxing. This one will be a permanent fixture on my computer, along with the others

I totally agree with Pennmom, this is how a card game should be!
I am a huge fan of the bonus games. In the previous JM Solitaire, I kept the game installed for months, just because i didn't get tired playing the bonusgames. In this game there are even more Solitaire variations to discover. It was an instant buy for me.

I recommend this game!

Suricate has done it again and come up with another in their series of very fine solitaire games! This time, it's a winter-themed one with their usual very beautifully-rendered graphics, not only for the scenes that you build, but also for the card fronts and backs, of which there are several to choose from.

It seems that this developer has taken notice of the comments in some of the reviews of their last such solitaire game (L'Amour), whereby the bonus games were of the mahjong type. This time round they have made them other types of solitaire games, 12 in all, equally as charming, which will satisfy most players. Background music is Christmas-themed, very tasteful and unobtrusive.

Other reviewers have described the game well, so there is nothing more to say than this is a superb solitaire game, and a must-buy for all solitaire fans! Show less

I recommend this game!

Without a doubt this is one of the best and most beautiful solitaire games that I have played making it a definite buy for me.

Not only do we have the usual (and by the way much overused) one up or one down type of solitaire there are additional bonus level type solitaire games that we can play. What makes this game special for me are the gorgeous graphics with the wintery scenes. I love this game and even the gameplay that still manages to be fun and entertaining.

The soundtrack of the game is so soothing and relaxing which makes it perfect for this wonderful Jewel Match Solitaire Winterscapes game. As always please try the demo to see if you will enjoy this game. Happy gaming! Show less

The scenery is STUNNING along with the castles that you build as you win and a beautiful village to start out with. Every thing is Beautiful. Yes, it is a winter scene with the Christmas music to sooth and enhance the playing setting of the game. You can get lost in the music & the card game & you will find yourself playing for hours. 4 different card sets and several challenge levels to pick from, the usual easy to a harder skill level. Try playing all of the levels & skills no matter your abilities. You will not be disappointed. Show less

These are my fav Solitaire games! Jewel Match are Bigfishes best offerings!

I really loved the scenes on this one! Hope to see many more of these!
