Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This top-rated trial for one of the most popular solitaire programs around continues to improve. The 2008 version of SolSuite Solitaire adds another two original games, bringing the grand total to 484...for now. Expect to see even more new games in later releases. The excellent trial offers a free month of play (with three shuffles per game), and big solitaire fans will likely register before the 30 days are up.
The helpful interface lets you browse games grouped by type, time, difficulty, and skill level, or you can have the program choose a variation at random. SolSuite provides a glance at each game's rules, a difficulty rating, and a layout. Players can choose between different card sets and backgrounds, and they can even create their own solitaire games using the Rules Wizard.
Strategies, tips, and hints help beginners, and adepts will enjoy the robust statistics including graphs, 3D charts, tables, logs, and online high scores. You can always undo your moves and return to a good position. The suite supports multiple players, which is perfect for families and tournaments. A longtime editor and user favorite on CNET Download.com, SolSuite looks likely to further satisfy our solitaire cravings in 2008.

Version: SolSuite Solitaire 2008 8.6
Pros: 2nd to none
Cons: Registration is a pain, about every 3rd upgrade you have to request a new sn. I will not give them any more of my money because of this fact alone

"Lots of Games, Good Playability, Few Problems"
Pros: Many different games often with different subsets of rules. Customizable card backs and lots of face selections.
Cons: Proliferation of email advertising is somewhat annoying. Graphics revolve around certain styles and exclude others. You have to pay for your license every year. Too difficult to download updates.
