SoloDeck for BlackBerry PlayBook Trial Edition
*** Version 1.4 *** adds "Gaps" to the collection of games. In this addictive game, you build up suited collections of 2 through King from left to right. Aces are not part of the game. A gap can only be filled with the next higher card of the same suit. But a gap behind a King becomes dead space that you cant move anything into. If four dead spaces appear, you get 2 automatic reshuffles, preserving any runs starting from the 2s on the left.
*** Version 1.3 *** introduces new game statistics organized by game rather than for the app as a whole. There are also a number of improvements to overall game play and control.
SoloDeck is a collection of solitaire card games for your BlackBerry PlayBook. Included at this time are five games: Freecell, Klondike, Scorpion, Memory, and Gaps.
The free trial edition of this app is a fully functional counterpart to the paid edition, with one exception: the trial edition closes after each game played, requiring you to restart.
Freecell, Klondike, Scorpion and Gaps are based on popular classic games. Memory is a game that challenges you to remember the position of cards, when you briefly flip them over, and remove them from the screen in matched pairs by denomination.
The app has been designed to maximize use of the screen as the play surface. The main screen consists of the layout with the playing cards, and nothing else, just as you might see it on a real table. There is nothing else on the play surface to distract you from the game itself. Game play is simple and intuitive; you drag a card or cards from one pile to another with your finger. However, if you want to keep track of the game playing time and score, there is an option to place a "score board" on-screen. It does not interfere with game play, and can be made visible or hidden at will.
But there is more. Using left and right gestures, you can navigate to the Options, Statistics, and Help screens where you can control aspects of the game, view statistics, and link to our website for more details and playing guides. You can also get to these screens by swiping down to reveal the apps navigation menu.
