I meant to check this game out the other day the first time a thread was posted. Is there a lite version planned?

Hi CzarCastic

Not at the moment. We are currently making Ski Solitaire iPhone compatible as well as porting it to the Mac and PC but we will keep you updated if we decide to create a lite version in the future.

My wife and I love this game, it is one of the better Solitaire games out there and the theme is great.

Damn it, BT. Every time you post something like this, I feel obligated to buy the game.



Edit: So...as usual, BT, you didn't steer me wrong. Based on the two hours that I have played at my desk this afternoon, I'd have to say that Ski Solitaire is probably the most entertaining version of solitaire that I've played so far. It doesn't take things too seriously. It gives enough of a challenge that you can't just tear through the game. And, I like the addition of the powerups and store upgrades. If you're a fan of solitaire card games, then you should have this.

Damn both Czar, and BT. I trust both your opinions, and so what am I to do? Probably buy it this weekend, although, I did just get Bards Tale, and am not sure I should get distracted before I start it - it would be another new game gathering dust in my iPad.

I got this game yesterday based on BazookaTime and CzarCastic's comments - great job! I said to my daughter it's a good game, simple but you have to be on your toes to score well!

CzarCastic, I thought that was a bit harsh. You get a summary page after each stage with how much money you earnt and it has a running total at the bottom. I can also see the 'earnings' you get on the course select screen.

Update: Now my wife has got hold of the game and won't give back the iPad - what have you guys done with my family! Seriously, very fun game!

Glad you like it. I think I've spent about 6 hours playing. I don't ever play games that much.

My comment about the end of course stats was specifically about the end of stage 10. What happens at the end of stage 10? You get booted to the menu. I would love to see a course summary. I don't want to have to remember my total at the end of stage 9, then guess how much I earned in stage 10. Plus, I don't really understand what the "course earnings" represents. Sometimes I seem to earn that money. Sometimes I don't. I guess I'm not sure what I need to earn it consistently. And, I don't think adding for a summary screen in a high score game is asking that much.
