Hi, I think there is a bug in Tap Solitaire (my favourite variant so far because it is so relaxed and still challenging) where it sometimes doesn't spawn all the cards. In this picture, the Keke 4 is missing. It doesn't really come to attention because the auto-pile feature just goes over it.
Hiya! I've been loving playing tap solitaire, but I recently discovered you can quit out to the main menu in the middle of a game, and when you go back into it the cards reset and a new game starts but the streak doesn't go back to zero. Just wanted to make you aware of this.
(I haven't tried it with other solitaires yet, because I'm obsessed with tap solitaire. It taps into the goldilocks-zone of my focus.)
That's intentional, in a way; I wanted to give the player a way to bail out of a game if they notice an obviously impossible deal since the game doesn't guarantee solvability. It's a pretty weak solution since if you care about your streak, you can then effectively restart the game in a more clunky way to "cheat", but making the streak system uncheeseable would've been quite difficult in itself + I don't like the idea that the player can get a deal that's obviously impossible from the start without being able to prevent their streak going away.
I downloaded A Solitaire Mystery on my Windows 11 PC, but every time it launches, it closes. I don't see any in-game graphics before it does so, it just turns on and off immediately. Has anyone else had this problem?
They're just tens; it would've been awkward to fit the number & the symbols, so I thought it'd be aesthetically more striking to leave the number out. Apologies for the confusion.
I set the window multiplication to x2, then next time I opened the game it only showed the upper-left corner of the screen. I can't even access the Settings anymore. Re-install doesn't even solve it. I am guessing the game is reading from some config file that I don't know the location of. What can I do? Can I maximize the window?
This has been great and I have enjoyed every game I've played so far.
As a mildly colorblind person, your diamond and club suit colors are very hard to distinguish, and the symbols are pretty small. It hasn't stopped me from puzzling it out, but it has slowed me down or made me believe I was stalled out several times. If there's a "colorblind mode" or a way to better separate the colors of all suits, I would appreciate it!
These are sorted so that the ones on the left are most disparate, so they are generally rarer but more favorable if you can make them because they get rid of difficult to use cards.

That's really odd! I haven't heard of this happening before. How often has it happened to you?

Ah! That makes sense! Thanks for taking the time to explain. And thanks for the fun game. Hope you have a good rest of the day :)
Maybe you could make it so your streak doesn't reset if your very first move is pressing the Redeal button
Hi! Love the game; any chance this gets a linux release?
I run it under Linux like so:
1. extract ASM.exe and rename to ASM.love
2. install the Love2D runner
3. in the command line:
saw this at GDC, looks really fun! 🃏
Someone help me, I am so bad at solitaire but that didn't stop me from playing this 4 hours straight

Can anyone explain what the "blank" cards in Fork Solitaire do? The ones that have a suit but no displayed value.
There is nothing in the explanation and I have been racking my brain trying to figure it out.

I'll try to make the resolution work better in a future update; it might be a bit convoluted though...
That'll be great because as it stands now I have made the game totally unplayable by my own mistake 😭😭
Oh right, sorry, I missed that the issue wasn't resolvable - for now, you should be able to fix the issue by going to
users\<your username>\AppData\roaming\ASM\settings.txt
and adjusting the "scaling=" line to say "scaling=1" or so.
Thank you!!
Great game!

Minor typo in the rules for Gardening Solitaire:
"Cards will be automatically
beharvested from the garden slots."Thank you!

Thank you for the feedback - I'll definitely add this to the to-do list!
For anyone else whose brain broke trying to play garden solitaire, here are the possible combinations of cards with an average of exactly 4:
