March 22, 2013
It's all hands on deck, or decks, as it were, as you play Solitaire Blitz on iOS.
Based on the hugely popular Facebook game of the same name and developed by PopCap (who has a reputation for releasing games that end up being hugely popular), Solitaire Blitz is basically solitaire with a twist:
Dive into uncharted waters to uncover rare artwork and priceless antiques. Meet colorful characters during your underwater adventure. Match fast and score big to top the leaderboards, and share the wealth with friends. You've never played solitaire like this – it's a fast, fun, social event!As in the most popular variation of the eponymous card game, you make a turn in Solitaire Blitz by picking a card that is either higher or lower by one rank, regardless of suit, than the current card. If you can't see the video embedded above, please click here. But Solitaire Blitz introduces a time element that compels you to pick as many correct cards as you can within 60 seconds. It's definitely a fast-paced game, but don't expect to be able to play as many sessions of Solitaire Blitz as you want. That's because Solitaire Blitz employs an energy system whereby you can continue playing as long as you have energy. Your energy is automatically refilled over time. But you can also purchase energy packs in the in-game store if you don't have the patience to wait to play this game of Patience. Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, Solitaire Blitz is available now in the App Store for free. [gallery link="file" order="DESC"]
