-----Card Games
[ACCORD]
Accordian Solitaire 2.0 (Sands, Richard R.; $0) is an interesting and
entertaining solitaire game. The goal is to deal out as many cards as you want
and try to move them all into one stack. You can only move a card up one or
three places and then only if the destination card matches the suit or value
of the card being moved. VBRUN300 is required.
[BRAINJM]
Brain Jam 1.6 (Brain Jam Publications; $12-$20) is an unusual card game for
Windows. All the cards are dealt face up into eight columns. You can move
cards sequentially onto the build pile, or onto the discard pile. This looks
to be very difficult to win, but six winnable hands can be dealt from a menu.
[CALCSOL]
Calculation Solitaire (Thomas, Daniel ASP; $15-$20) is a well-done game of
solitaire. Features include card dragging, saved top scores, multiple
difficulty levels, hints, and more.
[CANFIELD]
Canfield for Windows (Thomas, Daniel ASP; $20) is an interesting and fun
variation of solitaire. If its five levels of difficulty are not enough, you
can define your own levels. Other features include cheating, auto-play, hints,
extensive help, and much more. This is a very nicely done game, with many
challenging options.
[CLCKSOL]
Clock Solitaire 1.1 (Fanion, Barry C.; $5) is an interesting game where the
cards are dealt into piles corresponding to locations on a clock face. The
object is to place all cards into the proper pile (aces at 1 o'clock, sixes at
6 o'clock, etc.) without getting stuck. You can change the graphic of the card
backs, and a running total of games won and lost is maintained. Requires
VBRUN300.
[CRISPY1]
Crispy1 (Pando, Chris; $0) is a solitaire game based on the King's Corners
game. It requires VBRUN100.
[FC_WIN]
FreeCell 1.2 (Allen, Marc L.; $5) is an interesting variation of solitaire for
Windows. There are several options for customizing the playfield. Other
features include card animation, automatic moves, and more. Do not expect to
win this game easily.
[GAPS]
Gaps 1.31s (Kokoski, Richard T.; $12) is a challenging variation of solitaire.
The object of the game is to properly move the cards so that you have the same
suit aligned up in sequential order, where each row holds a different suit and
the last position holds a blank space. You have an option to choose from 5 to
8 cards per suit. VBRUN100 is required.
[KINGCO]
King's Corners (Financial Systems Associates; $10)
[KLNDIKE]
Klondike Solitaire 93.06.20 (Junod, John A.; $5) is an excellent game of
solitaire for Windows. Features include unlimited backup of moves, a variety
of card and deck options, and an option that sends all playable cards home.
There are even two cheat features available for when frustration sets in. The
card bitmaps are very well done, and there are enough options to keep you from
getting bored.
[KLONWIN]
Klondike Solitaire for Windows (Pigeon Lake Software, Inc.; $5) is a
challenging card game for Windows 3.1. Features include six colorful card
backs, support for card dragging, double-clicking to place cards, and more.
[PAT_SOL]
Patience Solitaire 1.01V (Sands, Richard R.; $0) is a fast-paced solitaire
card game. You must build on the four aces in sequence (but regardless of
suit) from four face-up stacks. Don't expect to win at this very often. VBRUN
is required.
[PYR_SOL]
Pyramid Solitaire (Waddell, James; $0) is an interesting variation of
solitaire for Windows. The object is to clear all cards from the pyramid by
selecting pairs of cards that total 13 points. A mouse is required.
[PYR13]
Pyramid 1.3 (Philip Bush;; $5) is an interesting version of solitaire. You
must pair cards whose value totals 13 to remove them from the pyramid display.
This can be a difficult game to win. Requires VBRUN300.

bombs.
[THINGS]
Thieves and Kings 1.2 (Pixel Perfect; $20) contains two challenging solitaire
games for Windows: King's Corners and Forty Thieves.
[TOWERS]
Towers (Peninsula Software; $15) is a solitaire game that you can win 90% of
the time IF you are careful. You cannot blow through the cards playing the
first available cards every time as in other solitaire games. To win games,
you will probably have to take back a lot of moves and maybe start the hand
over a time or two.
[WINSPDR]
Windows Spider Solitaire 93.06.20 (Junod, John A.; $5) is a difficult
variation of solitaire for Windows. It uses two decks of cards and comes with
a help file to get you started. The author states that he can usually win 1
out of 5 games, and that skill in placing cards can overcome the luck of the
draw.
