Greek Goddesses of Solitaire Review
Hades loves to brag. Lately, he's been boasting about his fantastic solitaire skills and the Goddesses have grown tired of listening to him! They tell him that even a lowly mortal would offer him a challenge, to which he responds by locking the Goddesses up and leaving them there until a mortal can beat him at the game. Aphrodite may not be amused, but I thought the story line was funny - Hades, great God of the Underworld has nothing better to do than challenge people to beat him at solitaire! In case you haven't guessed, you are the lucky mortal that has to battle Hades and beat him in order to free the trapped Goddesses in Greek Goddesses of Solitaire.
GameHouse Solitaire Challenge Review
Solitaire is so old that historians don't even know precisely who invented it, when or where - but that hasn't stopped countless people from enjoying the card game and its many variations. GameHouse Solitaire Challenge doesn't put a new spin on Solitaire like we've seen with Fairway Solitaire, Solitaire Cruise and other casual game offerings. Rather, it's a straightforward collection of 10 of the most popular types of Solitaire with a Challenge mode and stat tracker thrown in.
Blokus World Tour Review
And so it's a natural extension for this beloved board game to be parlayed into a computer game. The result is Funkitron's Blokus World Tour, a turn-based strategy game that builds on the winning formula with multiple game modes, colorful graphics and lots of personality.
Fairway Solitaire Review
Let me be frank - my primary associations with golf are Tiger Woods, the American medical profession, and horribly funny clothes. Cashmere cardigans I can live with, but who on Earth decided plaid pants are posh? Never mind the question. Golf is growing in popularity, and it's no surprise that a golf themed solitaire game has finally cropped up.
Zen Games Review
Ever heard of Hexajong or Ishidoku? We didn't think so. They happen to be German developer Like Dynamite's own unique spins on mah jong and Sudoku, respectively. Both games appear together in the package known collectively as Zen Games.
Jewel Quest Solitaire 2 Review
Rather than casual games that challenge players to click furiously to accomplish goals -- such as time-based micromanagement games a la Diner Dash or Cake Mania - some digital diversions serve as relaxing getaways for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Jewel Quest Solitaire 2 is a perfect example of the latter, as its relatively simple premise, slow pace and compelling story make this an ideal pick for puzzle fans of all ages.
Waterscape Solitaire: American Falls Review
Whether viewing photos of waterfalls or visiting them in person, people are captivated and can't help but marvel at their splendor. Take a tour of American waterfalls in Waterscape Solitaire, where they appear as the backdrop of an intriguing "solitaire" card game that actually closely resembles mah jong with a couple of added twists.
5 Realms of Cards Review
Buried somewhere deep within 5 Realms of Cards is probably the traditional game of Solitaire that Windows users everywhere know and love. But the game has gone through so many twists, turns and tweaks that finding that original kernel is pretty hard to do. Not that this is necessarily a bad thing.
Battleship Fleet Command Review
Ah, Battleship. Many thirty- and forty-somethings likely have fond memories of sitting at a kitchen table with a friend or sibling, and opening up the plastic game that faces away from your opponent. Oh the fun in yelling out "B - 2!" and watching your rival's face sour, meaning it was a direct hit on their fleet. Your goal, of course, is to blow the enemy out of the water before they can do the same. And who could forget that timeless and cheesy line from the commercial: "Hey, you sank my battleship!"
Tic-A-Tac Royale Review
Some things simply go well together: Coffee and chocolate. Rock music and driving fast. Wine and cheese.
Evidently, Tic-Tac-Toe and casino games are also a fine combination - as you'll find out in Tic-A-Tac Royale from [add here].
