I love all the games by this developer. It is a relaxing up/down solitaire game to find all the gold cards. The Newbie section is for the most part fairly easy, but when you get to the professional side the game becomes more challenging. Enjoy!

I recommend this game!

If you like "one up or one down" solitaire, this game is one to try. Beautiful graphics and music, and doesn't take a rule book to learn. So relaxing, yet challenging. I buy all these games because they make me happy. Not an easy thing to do these days. Great distraction.

I recommend this game!

But I still like the game. I have a soft spot for this developer because the first solitaire game and the first mosaics game I played were from this developer. They actually gave me my love for mosaics and this particular outlay of solitaire. There are far better solitaire games, but I like that this one is free of a lot of bells and whistles.

But I still like the game. I have a soft spot for this developer because the first solitaire game and the first mosaics game I played were from this developer. They actually gave me my love for mosaics and this particular outlay of solitaire. There are far better solitaire games, but I like that this one is free of a lot of bells and whistles. The extras are sometimes so overdone that they detract from my enjoyment of the game. With that said, I do wish the dev would address the complaints made by other reviewers. The fact that they never do makes me think two things: 1) either they could care less what their players think -- which is pretty foolish if they want our money, or 2) all of their programmers have quit or been fired because they're broke, and all they have are the same old blueprints that they use over and over and make some minor adjustments to.

Some of the early games use to have different backdrops for each level, then they started repeating the same backdrop throughout the game. Again, don't they have any professionals on staff that can actually make some changes to what came before? Another thing is that some of their artwork in their games is unfinished and doesn't match the name of the level at all. Once again I wonder if they just don't care or if they've lost all their competent staff. Or maybe they actually dislike their players so much that they enjoy poking their fingers in our eyes and depend on new players who haven't caught on to the fact that they just put out the same game over and over. Even though I like this game and developer, I still don't recommend it to anyone but newcomers.

Again, I actually like these games and continue to buy them. So far, the artwork has been pretty in this game, but it's the same solitaire boards that they always use. I really hope they will put the suggestions other reviewers have requested into practice. They'll sell a lot more games and get a lot more positive feedback of their work if they do that. They do seem to have addressed a few of the complaints over time. Some of their games aren't so stingy with the number of cards they give, and I for one am very grateful for that. But please, address the other complaints -- for your sake and ours. If you do, I promise to buy all of your games and give you positive, 5-star reviews and praise the fact you finally made the long-requested changes. Show less

I don't recommend this game.

The gameplay is the Dev's signature style. I Give them a thumbs up on Graphic improvements, the background scenery is much clearer & sharper, keep coming with the improvements and stay true to your gameplay, because not everyone wants lots to do in a simple basic 1 up 1 down solitaire game, i do wish the Dev's would implement an option for a match 2 solitaire game, I've always loved those...

I recommend this game!

Personally, I like cards that are easy to see without all the graphic distractions. If I want graphics, I'll play a 'Story" game. Obviously, play will seem similar from game to game because that's what this is -- there's only so many ways to arrange the cards. When I like a certain playing style, I look forward to more of the same, rather than replaying one. So, I'm happy to play very similar ...Show more

As far as the music goes, I don't get 'pirate' at all! It's fittingly, sometimes eerie, fairy tale music.

I played 6 levels and I'll be adding this one to my solitaire collection. Show less

Grimm's Tales 2 is just like the other 4 games in the series. This dev has turned a blind eye to making any changes that would certainly make this a more appealing game. It's crazy that a few improvements can't be added. Our simple suggestions and requests always go unanswered.

Grimm's Tales 2 is just like the other 4 games in the series. This dev has turned a blind eye to making any changes that would certainly make this a more appealing game. It's crazy that a few improvements can't be added. Our simple suggestions and requests always go unanswered. It's a pretty plain and simple solitaire and I dislike that the tutorial makes your plays for you (turn it off) you won't miss anything, the Gold Cards are back that end the game once removed, and you must complete the Newbie Mode to earn the replay option. The features are minimal and don't add anything special to the game. It becomes boring too soon.

Solitaire isn't typically full of bells and whistles but it should contain something to keep it interesting and enhance the entertainment level. Strategy plays and skills seldom get a chance to be used here. This series misses the mark on numerous counts. If you are unfamiliar with Mystery Solitaire, you might find it entertaining and ample enough to fill your needs. If looking for something more substantial that will test your skills and provide some relaxing enjoyment, I think you will be disappointed.

The game has a variety of card backs and fronts, Bonus Cards, Obstacle Cards, Newbie and Professional Modes, and a required number of points to open the next pack of 10 levels. The graphics are okay, the music not so good. I experienced no tech issues. The demo is a good indicator of what to expect, maybe you'll be pleased. I wasn't.

If we had a Rotten Tomatoes category, this game would be a suitable entry, IMO. There are better quality solitaire games on the market. Why do we see them so rarely at BFG? Show less

I don't recommend this game.
