Legends of Solitaire is a legendary series that keeps getting better with every game and this one exceeds my expectations, I didn't want to stop playing long enough to write a review, and ya'll know how much I love to talk! This game has amazing detail with atmospheric music, a tad bit of fog, subtle background FX, well-drawn characters, and an engaging story. Add that to a Solitaire game that has features you want, features you insist on, and features you never knew you needed and you've got yourself glued to a computer chair saying, "just one more level" okay, "this is my last hand"

There are 20 Solitaire Realms and within each of those Realms, there are 10 Levels each. You can choose from 16 different Card Graphic Styles and 5 Font Styles and 8 different Cursors and there are 20 Achievement Trophies (I could be wrong, they are difficult to read until you earn the achievements) You can Play in a Casual Mode (which has a high probability of earning special cards & allows you to play King to Ace and vice versa) a Normal Mode (normal probability of earning special cards & allows you to play King to Ace and vice versa) or a Hard Mode (which has a low probability of earning specialty cards and does not allow you to play King to Ace & vice versa) You can also choose to play in a Higher/Lower Solitaire, a Match 2 Cards Solitaire or a Sum of 14 Solitaire Mode!

The choices aren't over yet folks! You can Enable or Disable the Mini-Games Timer. There are various Mini-games throughout the levels that popup, such as Match 3 Games, Find The Diamond (the diamond card shuffles around and you have to pick the correct card when the shuffling stops) Memory Game (flip 2 cards over to find matching objects) You can Enable or Disable the Score Effects after each level (yes!) Enable or Disable the Background Effects, Enable or Disable Simple Battle Mode (during the Battle Card Mode, your opponent will not play any cards on his turn & will just build up battle cards after you click on the deck pile) and you can Enable or Disable the Hidden Objects (before each Realm or set of 10 levels, you must search for Hidden Objects unless you disable this feature)

There is also a Freeplay Mode (Higher/Lower, Match 2, Sum 14) a Tri-Peaks Mode, and a Five-Peaks Solitaire Mode as well as the Story Mode. You can earn 4 Stars per level, (4 Stars=perfect, 3 Stars=1 card remaining, 2 Stars=2 cards remaining, 1 Star=3 cards remaining) Combos start at 6 cards and you get 1 Undo per level. Some cards have Coins that are earned when you remove them and Jokers turn into Number Specific Wildcards that can be stored for use at any time. The Coins earned can be used in the Shop to purchase Power-ups, but you can only store 5 Power-up Cards at a time.

As you progress, various Obstacles are added such as the Magical Stone Card which requires using the Mace Card to smash. The Fog Cards need to be removed twice, and the Axe Card is required to Break the Ice Card.

In Battle Mode, you will take turns against your opponent (unless you disable this mode in the settings) The goal is to build up Attack or Heal Cards as you play a normal hand of solitaire until you can't remove any more cards. The amount of stars you collect is determined by the number of turns it takes you to defeat the enemy.

If you want a Solitaire game with a lot of variety that is really addicting, this is definitely it!

First off I have a confession to make, I have never played others in this series but going by previous reviews there are some differences to this game.

First off I love that you can alternate between one up or down, match 2 or add to 14. Some solitaire games I find get pretty boring but I completed the demo and just had to carry on.

First off I have a confession to make, I have never played others in this series but going by previous reviews there are some differences to this game.

First off I love that you can alternate between one up or down, match 2 or add to 14. Some solitaire games I find get pretty boring but I completed the demo and just had to carry on.

There is a lot happening here also you can select to not have hidden object games and play relaxed or increase the difficulty.
Having said that the HO games are very easy, the main challenge is in the solitaire games.

There are various mini games to select here and you can even select a simple battle mode. Others will give you a far better detailed review of this game but for me as Solitaire games go this is very interesting and you can adjust to how you want it.

Try the demo and see if this will suit but for me, it is a buy. Show less

I recommend this game!

A lot is customizable in this cardgame. The difficulty, how much jokers, cardbacks etc, but also if you want to play higher/lower or match 2 or 14. Every tenth level is a battle cardgame, wich I thought was fun and a nice variation.

I have a ton of solitaire games, bought this one today, and it outshines all the others. Many things to do, a ton of levels, can make the game like you want it.

I'm just very impressed with what I'm seeing.

I recommend this game!

Yes, there are 22 levels, but each has 10 games in it. To start off, you may choose to be timed or not. You may choose graphic for card score and background, the card battle difficulty and whether you want hidden objects to look for.

IT'S A BUY FOR ME! Show less

It has been quite a few years since purchasing the previous game, "Curse of the Dragon". I actually forgot about it until I saw today's release. I dusted off the cobwebs and played a little to refresh my memory. It is a very good solitaire game, so I'm thinking the quality will be the same, maybe better in "Diamond Relic." I bought it without hesitation after playing the entire demo. Great solitaire games are rare these days!

I love that there are so many levels. The variety of games is perfect for me personally. I think the card fronts and backs are very nice, I always enjoy trying them all throughout the game. The graphics are very busy and interesting and the music is good. Ample bonuses to help out, a choice of cursors plus there are hidden objects (optional) and a battle card game that are a bit of extra fun. I appreciate that the game can be customized, I like that feature!

"Diamond Relic", so far, is very enjoyable and I look forward to many hours of quiet, relaxing time with it. After coffee, I will be into the 30th level, it is a fairly challenging solitaire and there have been no technical issues to spoil the fun!

Try the demo, I think you just might like it. Show less

I recommend this game!

Hate to be odd person out, but I found this game rather boring. You have to achieve so many stars and then at the end of each level there is a battle to win to go on to the next level. It has ice, locks, fire, etc. on cards to overcome so nothing new there. Always try for yourself.

I don't recommend this game.

Like another reviewer, I don't understand why people find this game so challenging? Has no one ever played Jewel Quest Solitaire III?? Every other solitaire game pales in comparison. Especially this one. I didn't finish demo because I knew in the first five minutes that this is like all others...

I don't recommend this game.

Not for playing the game, but on how to use the store items, how to access the ones you've bought, etc.
