⋆Spider Solitaire: Card Games

I understand why developers of the games need ads, but I think it’s unreasonable to not only sit through the ad but become an active participant in the game being advertised is way over the top. Plus it’s always the same two ads. I love this game so I will keep it on my phone but it was amazing with no ads to just zone out and play and play. Update: I'm so glad I wrote my previous rating because the developers contacted me for more details which I provided. Today I am happy to report the game is behaving like it use to with only one 5 second ad and then a quick return to the game. So happy to have my Spider back. It's fun, challenging, and addictive. Love it! Thank you for listening and fixing the issue.

ask user to change the rating

After receiving a developer response, I'm updating my rating from 2 stars to 1. Firstly, the top horizontal row is so far down the screen that once you build vertical rows, everything gets smushed so you can no longer see what's at the top. Also, there is an "undo" button, but no "redo" button. But worst of all, the game kept glitching, freezing, and crashing. So I contacted support. After following their exact advice, I lost all of my scores, achievements, and settings. Down the drain. Don't waste your time. They keep claiming my info is saved via the game center and I am able to see some things in the scores screen, but everything else (the settings, stats, etc.) is gone. After reinstalling the app, it continued glitching and crashing. The only complaint they seem to want to respond to is the lost information. They haven't updated this app in over a year and have no interest in understanding this bug or fixing it. My advice is - try the Spider Solitaire app by "FingerArts: Thousands of Free Games" because they have a superior layout. The clock doesn't begin counting down until you make your first move, and the entire format and appearance is far easier on the eyes. The cards are dealt at a much faster speed, saving time as well.

I love this app! It’s so simple, and I love how you can change the themes. One of the previous spider solitaire that I had had it set up so that whenever you click on a card to move it, it pulled up the options bar and was super annoying. On this one, there is an actual little arrow to pull up the options bar and is much easier to use. Plus I’ve had no problems with ads at all! I love how simple it is and how you can do a lot of customize it at the same time. Super simple, I really recommend it!!! Get this app, is the best one out there! Update: after the update on this app, I couldn’t download pictures to put on cards or as the backdrop. Also, I can’t see any of my achievements. Every time I click on it, it just goes back to the game I was playing. The game it’s self worked really well, but if you want to customize it or keep track of The games you played, it won’t really work that well for you. The idea of downloading pictures for your backdrop was really intriguing but didn’t actually work.

I am so tired of having my ads silenced (it evens has the emblem in the corner) yet THIS add plays exceedingly LOUD music. I shouldn't have to put my phone on silent in order to stop the sound. I play solitaire when I'm going to bed and the sound is abrupt and loud and disturbs my husband. It's the add with the older man waking up and his parents telling him they've sold the house. It's for a game where you design homes. I'm SICK of this add! Please, just allow it to be silenced for goodness sake. 😡 Update: the add is back but slightly new. It won't allow me to attach an image to this review for some reason. The option is not available. The sound is still ridiculous. It says "install now" at the top and then "pick your cabinets!" above a middle aged man's head. He's to the left in the picture. This add is super irritating.

I enjoy the process of untangling the cards. I also appreciate the ease of use and the simple layout. Being able to choose from a variety of card styles is good. However, there is one feature I would like the developers to adjust somehow. The replay and new game buttons are right next to each other, and I have accidentally hit new game when I meant to hit replay. There is no undo for that. You can't go back and replay the game after you have hit new game. That is very frustrating to me. I like to play a puzzle until I figure it out. Out of the nearly 200 games I have played using the four suited option, I have lost six. Those are the times I accidentally hit new game. Please develop a work around for this issue.
