Yukon Russian – Solitaire Game

Game is fun to play, ads are not overly intrusive. I am a huge fan of MobilityWare games. One of the prompts when the game is loading says that all games are winnable. This is simply not true, at least not in the last week or two. I play this game every day, and normally do win every game. However, lately I am getting a LOT of unwinnable games, especially in Russian. I just had one that literally only had one available first move (per hints) followed by NO available second move. The very next game had one first move, followed by one second move (again, per hints) and no third move. Not sure what is up with this, but if I’m suddenly getting 7 or 8 unwinnable games for every winnable one, there’s not much reason to keep playing this game every day, or even at all. Worse, a lot of them dead-end after just 2 or 3 moves. This has not improved and I note no response from developers. This greatly changes the dynamics of playing these games - if you know a game is winnable you can try different approaches and keep going until you get it. If you can’t trust that, then forget it - give a try and move on. Sadly, I’ve enjoyed this game but I’m dropping it now and, unlike every other MobilityWare game, I would not recommend bothering with it. Developers? Any thoughts?

I play several Mobilityware games and Russian solitaire has become my favorite. Love the game. It is challenging but winnable. Lately, several times I have had to close the game because ads which block the game will not go away. The screen is not frozen. I can leave it for an hour and when I return, the same ad is blocking the game. If I turn off my phone, it will refresh. There are also new banner ads at the bottom of the screen which partially block the game FOR A LONG TIME! Besides quality games and graphics, one of the reasons I have always liked these games is because the ads are short. C’mon guys. Don’t ruin a good game with ads that block. I understand that I need to see ads to pay for a free app, but these are really annoying enough for me to quit playing.

At last I found a different spin on Solitaire. I play several Mobility games. In fact, you are becoming my favorite game company, and I find Russian Solitaire fun and challenging. It may become my current favorite. Personally, I enjoy knowing how other players fared. It lets me know what I’m up against. If I win, I feel really good, and if not, I know I’m not alone. My one minor complaint, and it is minor, is the constant hints that I get whether I want them or not. I’m new to the game, and right now it gives me no time to find a card before I get the hint. Maybe that will fade as time passes, but if I want a hint, I’ll ask for it. That being said, this a a fun gam for relaxing and passing time.
