Starting a Game
Tap the game you want to play in the game list.
Scroll the game list by swiping it with your finger.
If you don't know what to play, try Klondike. It's the solitaire game most people know.
Moving Cards
1. Tap a card to select it.
2. Tap the place you want the selected card to move to.
3. If the card can't be moved, the card you tapped on will be selected if possible.
Scrolling
The screen may be scrolled if card columns extend off the bottom of the screen.
Pausing
Solebon pauses and saves your game every time you turn off your device, switch applications, or return to the games list. The game is automatically restored the next time you play.
Undo
All moves from the beginning of the game can be undone.
Undo a move by tapping the Undo toolbar button.
Auto
Auto-play speeds up some games by quickly moving available cards into foundations.
Tap the Auto toolbar button to use it. If the button isn't available, auto-play can't be used with the current game.
Auto-play is not smart, it's only for convenience. It won't make moves within tableau, reserve or waste piles.
Use Auto-play wisely and keep an eye on what it's doing. The choices it makes can lose an otherwise winnable game.
Double-tapping a card will auto-play that individual card. This is the best way to use auto-play — you get the speed benefit while making the decisions yourself.
Scoring
Solitaire games end in two ways: you win or you get stuck. To better measure your play ability, Solebon uses a scoring system that rewards for good play even if you lose.
1 point is subtracted for each card used when a game starts. For games with one deck, this means the starting score will be -52.
3 points are added when a card is played into final position as defined by a game's rules.
The score for a game in progress is shown at the bottom of the game screen. Cumulative scores for all games are shown in the game's stats.
Timer
The timer tracks how long each game takes to play. Times are kept in the game statistics.
The time for a game in progress is shown at the bottom of the game screen. Cumulative times for all games are shown in the game's stats.
Stats
Solebon provides several play statistics for each game.
The stats are only for completed games. Saved games and games in progress are not included.
View stats by tapping the Stats toolbar button.
