Freecell Solitaire

I've been making some improvements to my Freecell Solitaire card game and adding more card games to this web site. I hope you like the improvements, but if not, please feel free to play play the old version. I know, not everyone likes it when I change my sites, so I try and keep all the old versions around for those of us that fear change... like me ;-)

So I've added an 'Undo' button and a 'Full Screen' button, as well as a new skin. I've added several other solitaire card games as well. If you have any suggestions or just want to say hi, feel free to use the sugest improvements page to send me an email.

Thanks for playing :-)

    Hi, Rick! Thanks for the hours of fun. I stayed with the "Old" games when you first changed the screens. Lately I am unable to load Freecell and Hardcell (both Old and New). Is something different.....what happened?

    Reply from Rick: I'm not sure. I've had a few similar complaints recently, but everything appears to be working as far as I can tell. What browser are you using? What OS?

    Thanks for letting me know,

    Add an option to restart the game without having to undo all the moves.

    why no restart button.Cant keep hitting new games at all times

    Reply from Rick: If you want to start again from the beginning. Right now you can just hit undo until you get back to the start. Starting over from the beginning wasn't a feature that I thought about when I made the game. I'm going to try and work it into a future update.

    Thanks for the suggestion, :-)

    Clicking "new game' brings up just that: A NEW GAME. I'd like to be able to restart the game I tried to solve and failed and be able to keep trying until I solve it.

    Reply from Rick: Gotcha... you want to restart the same game you just played.

    Right now you can hit the 'Undo' button until you get all the way back to the beginning if you failed to solve it. There isn't a mechanism to replay if you got to the end though.

    I might be able to add a button to do that... but right now my UI is getting a bit crowded, so I'm not sure how I would go about it.

    Thanks for the suggestion, :-)

    Why can't we replay a game until it's solved?

    Reply from Rick: Click the 'New Game' button.

    Hope that helps, :-)

    Would like to be able to keep score in terms of % of games won

    Reply from Rick: I should probably have a score on the game.

    Thanks for the suggestion, :-)

    Allow undo's

    Reply from Rick: There is an Undo button. It shows up in the lower left of the game screen when you have a move that you can undo.

    Hope that helps, :-)

    I think the timer should not go on at least til you set the page right. You should give us a second or two before the timer goes off. We lose a couple of seconds right off the bat.

    Reply from Rick: That's probably a good idea. I'll try to remember that on future updates.

    Thanks for the suggestion, :-)

    I've been playing on this site for some time and enjoying it. Today was the first time I had 2 games come up where they couldn't be finished. Once the Ace of diamonds was missing and nowhere in the stacks and the last game is missing the Ace of spades. Enjoy playing and seeing if I can beat my best time. JG

    I do not have a sugestion. Ihave read all the coments and see where the fastest time on this freecell game is 1:42. I just wanted to say that about 30 minutes ago I beat it in 1:41. My previous best was 1:43. I was not sure I was going to beat that time. This is from jimbo.

  • - 2013-03-28 10:26:21

    Sometimes cards won't move so can't finish game

    Reply from Rick: I've been working on that bug. Right now you have to refresh the page if it happens.

    Thanks for letting me know, :-)

    All of the Freecell Solitaire have 1:42 as the best time, every time that I play. When I first started playing, I could sometimes beat the old record, but now all of the records say 1:42 and I can't beat that.

    Reply from Rick: That is much faster than I can do :-)

    Thanks for playing,
    Rick

    All of the best times are the same. How can that be?

    Reply from Rick: I'm not sure what you mean... Across all the games?

    Thanks for letting me know,
    Rick

  • justdoreen - 2013-03-15 20:04:20

    I would like to see number of games won in a row. Score keeping would be great. Best score is good but wins and losses is good.

    Reply from Rick: That's not a bad idea. I could probably throw that info into the cookie, so it wouldn't require a login or anything. I'll try to remember that the next time I do an update.

    Thanks for the suggestion, :-)

    how do you win playing penguin? At the end I have tried ace-king to one, then tried king , queen to ace. Is there another way ?

    Reply from Rick: When you build up the suit piles on the left, you have to start with the same card that's already in the other 3 suit piles. When you get to a King in that pile, you have to place an Ace on top of it.

    Similarly, when you get to an Ace in the columns, you have to place a King on top of it.

    Hope that helps, :-)

    I'm fine with the old Penguin for now, but if you decide to take down the old versions we will have to negotiate :)

    Reply from Rick: I usually try to keep my old versions around, when I make significant changes. :-)

  • Sharon - 2013-02-06 17:37:05

    So I guess it was just a bug in the old version of Penguin that let you move the stacks rather than one card at a time? They are definitely different in that regard. Thanks again.

    Reply from Rick: Yeah... looking at the old version it does look like I let you do that. And no, I wasn't supposed to. If you prefer the old version it's still available.

    Old Penguin Freecell

    So I'm not sure if that was a bug or a feature, but you were right.

    Thanks for letting me know,
    Rick

  • sharon - 2013-02-05 19:19:15

    I haven't checked it lately but another bug was in the new penguin game you couldn't move the stacks like you could in the original game = it only lets you move cards individually. Thanks for the great site!

    Reply from Rick: Penguin only lets you move one card at a time. That's just the rules of the game. I might eventually make a version where you can move more cards, but that's not the way the game's rules say it should be played.

    Thanks for playing and the kind words, :-)

    I don't undertand the multicolored new version. Doesn't look like a card game to me. I always immediately go to the old version.

    Reply from Rick: That's why I keep the old version available, for anyone who also prefers the older version.

  • sharon - 2013-02-03 15:16:03

    in Hardcell, when you click on "new game" it takes you to freestyle game rather than hardcell.

    Reply from Rick: You're right. That's a bug, it shouldn't flip over all the cards when you hit the 'New Game' button on Hardcell.

    Thanks for letting me know,
    Rick

    The old version of freecellsolitaire.net/oldversion, when you click on the top should go to the new version freecellsolitaire.net, not freecellsolitaire.net/oldversion and by the way I like the simple graphics better, but it's always good to have choices

    Reply from Rick: At some point, I'm probably going to switch over all the old pages to look like the new pages, and then it will point to the new site home. I'm keeping the old site up as it was for a little while for those of us who don't like change. I'm going to keep the old games around, but you'll have to navigate to them through the new web site interface. I'm not sure I agree with what you're saying about the linking. I'm kind of maintaining it at the moment as if the old site is still there.

    Thanks for the suggestion, :-)

    To be able to cancel and then RE - START a game

    Reply from Rick: Do you mean restart the same game? If so, you should just be able to hit undo until you get back to where you want to be. Otherwise the 'New Game' button starts a brand new game.

    Let me know if I'm not understanding what you're asking for.

    Thanks for the suggestion,
    Rick
