## Description

Forty Thieves Solitaire is a fun and very challenging patience game that is 100% FREE. In this classic solitaire you move cards onto eight foundations, building up from Aces by suit. The fast, intuitive tap-to-move controls, readable cards, and a dedicated Low Vision Mode make it easy to play.

Choose from Fun, Medium, and Hard modes with no timers and auto-save so you can resume anytime. Fun lets you drag stacks and redeal unlimited times; Medium restricts to single-card moves; Hard removes redeals altogether. Global leaderboards (Game Center) and music options round out the experience.

## Review summary

Forty Thieves Solitaire! is highly praised for engaging, brain-boosting play and flexible difficulty. Players enjoy the no-time-limit pace, three levels (easy/medium/hard), and evolving strategies that keep games fresh. The graphics are simple and unobtrusive, making it easy to focus on the puzzle. The main recurring drawback is that the hard mode can feel unwinnable for many, which may deter some players, though overall the game remains a favorite among Boy Howdy fans.

### Pros

- Addictive, hours-long gameplay that many players can’t put down
- Great variety and challenge with three difficulty levels and changing strategies
- Simple, clear graphics and easy to learn with no imposed time limit
- Brain-stimulating, thought-provoking gameplay that exercises the mind

### Cons

- Hard level is perceived as overly difficult with low win rates, due to rules that only allow kings to fill empty spaces (several players report feeling it’s almost unwinnable)
