Features & Capabilities

In Forty Thieves Solitaire the goal of the game is to move all the cards to the 8 foundation piles at the upper right corner.

The foundation piles are built in suit from A to K. You can use the middle 10 piles to hold the cards temporarily while you build up the cards in the foundation piles.

You may only move one card at a time, and you can only move a card to another pile if it is one lower and in the same suit. If you cannot make a move you can turn over a new card by clicking on the facedown deck in the top left.

It's game over if you have used all the stock cards and cannot put all the cards on the foundation.

User Reviews

Reviews focus on intrusive ads that interrupt play, fiddly card movement and placement, and update-induced UI issues. A minority praise the visuals and overall design, but ads and control problems dominate sentiment, undermining the game's enjoyability.
Pros
  • Visually appealing design with a beautiful, polished UI.
  • Easy to learn and use; straightforward solitaire gameplay.
  • Not-too-easy balance; reviewers note a fair level of challenge.
Cons
  • Ads are excessively intrusive and disruptive (frequent full-screen ads, pop-ups, long videos).
  • Card movement and placement are finicky and unresponsive, often requiring precise dragging and mis-seating cards.
  • Update-related issues degrade usability, including altered card sizes and visual regressions after updates.
  • Gameplay can be frustrating or not fun for some users due to ad overload and control issues.

Cannot win at this game and when they started running political ads, that was the end for me. Politics are being thrown at us from every angle, let us play games without having to listen to that. I'm deleting.

The pop up castle solitaire ad with the play/end video icon freezes iPhone 12 and you need to manually reset the phone to stop the game. We know the point of having the Apple App Store is to prevent viruses and malware. Why is malware in ads in game apps from the Apple Store?

Isn’t there any decent 40 thieves games out there?!!! Yes, I expect a challenge, but this one is NOT a “fun” game. I have to settle for it bc my apple does not not have the 40 thieves I played on my Samsung. My other one had an “auto-fill” and would highlight if there was a move possible. And when I won a game, it played a little song! This one says you did it. Woopdedoo!
