A Note On Beaming

If you are using Palm OS 3.0 through 3.4 and you upgrade AcidFreecell by beaming it, all of your previous AcidFreecell statistics will be erased, and you will have to re-enter your UnlockCode if you have one. This is a side-effect of beaming in Palm OS versions prior to OS 3.5 and can't be prevented. The best way to upgrade AcidFreecell is to use the Install tool to install it during a HotSync.

Installation

To install AcidFreecell, just double-click on the file "AcidFree.prc". The Palm Install Tool will start, with AcidFree.prc listed in the window.

Click "Done". The next time you HotSync, AcidFreecell will be installed.

If double-clicking does not work, you can start Palm Desktop and click the "Install" icon to start the Palm Install Tool. You can then click "Add..." and select the AcidFree.prc file.

If you have trouble installing AcidFreecell, you can find help in the documentation that came with your Palm OS device. You can also send email to support@red-mercury.com with questions.

Registration

If you have registered any version of AcidFreecell, your UnlockCode will still work on Version 1.6.

AcidFreecell will remind you from time to time that it is free to try for a short time. It will tell you how many days you have left to play for free. If you would like to purchase the fully registered version, simply visit Red Mercury to find instructions on how to purchase on-line. Once you have purchased the full version, you will receive an UnlockCode that will allow you to play unlimited AcidFreecell on one Palm OS device.

Playing

During the game, you can tap the Menu button in the lower-left hand corner of the Graffiti area to drop down the AcidFreecell menu. From this menu, you can restart the current game, start a new game, change options such as sound on/off, and read the online help that explains how to play.

AcidFreecell is a game of solitaire.
The goal of AcidFreecell is to move all 52 cards to the four home cells in the upper right of the playfield. The four free cells in the upper left of the playfield can be used to temporarily hold cards, one card per free cell. Each home cell will hold a stack of one suit of cards. The stack must be made in order from lowest (Ace) to highest (King).

AcidFreecell has online help including tips and instructions about special features of the game.
