    I have played just about every Solitaire game on Steam and Jewel Match Solitaire is by far the best on Steam. All the things you love about Solitaire is in this game: great game play, great challenging puzzle boards, trophies, bonus games, wallpaper, and more. There are 3 modes: Relaxed, Normal, and Hard that allows you to play at your own pace. The story is you re- building castles and kingdoms, you will need to collect gems throughout the game to do that. Bonus games are unlocked as…

    I bought this years ago when the publisher said the collector's editions (i.e. the complete games with all the content) won't be coming to steam. I figured a couple hundred levels are better than nothing, not that there was a shortage of solitaires even then. there's still a lot of content here and the game itself is what you'd expect from the billionth +1/-1 solitaire, but it's not worth buying now that the ce is also available. I'll link…

    Uh Oh. 23 levels in to the campaign which is all +1/-1 Solitaire but that's OK but I'm just about done with this. Ridiculous prices for power-ups which makes the game feel like it was developed for the mobile crowd. To boot power-ups are too standard and don't show any inventiveness like Reville's Home Run Solitaire. Another review said the game does not have a resolution menu though the game adapts to your desktop resolution just fine. Played @4K no issues.

    This is a pretty good Solitaire game following the usual format of the games in this series. I played the Twilight Jewel Match Solitaire game before this, and a lot of my gripes with that game are also in this one. i.e. not being able to change the window size when not full screened. This is an issue for me as most of the time when I'm playing a solitaire game, I have it off to the side of my screen in a small window while I'm watching YouTube or something on the other side.

    From the description, I thought that the journey of 200 plus levels would take me through multiple variants. But its all just your basic higher/lower matching, and as you progress you unlock single nonessential 'bonus games' of klondike and spider , etc. On top of which, the rules are bugged. I played a game of spider, and had one stack left, with 2 hidden cards, the king and the ace. king shows, i move the stack onto it, and it tells me i have no more moves, even though i had 7 open…

    Tons of levels, and once you beat a set of levels and fully build its castle, you can use it as a wallpaper if you want. They're very pretty, so that's a nice bonus. I also LOVE the bonus games. You can unlock like 12 different kinds of solitaire, including a bunch I'd never heard of before. If you click help button it tells you the rules. I love Aces Easy, Royal Family, and Eight Off. You don't build the castle when you play the bonus games but you do accumlate coins, which you can use to buy…

    A great solitaire game. A tonne of levels, some castles to build, nice progression with upgrades that are not too overpowered even after you have them all. Had a lot of fun with this. There are also bonus levels, featuring a whole bunch of different kinds of solitaire. My favourite is klondike which I used to play all the time irl back in highschool, so that was very nostalgic and also winning my first few games here is some of the most fun I've had in a game in a long time.

    It's solitaire. Basic, relaxing,casual, solitaire. Music is repetitive, but appropriate, Card layout are pretty much like every other solitaire game. I mean, come on. It's solitaire. How much "new" are you expecting? Chill game to just kill time. Some strategy required, more in the bonuses you buy with the coin you earn winning each hand than in how you play the cards. The landscapes and castles are very nicely drawn, very pretty. 10.5 hours to complete the game and unlock all achievements,…

    Just an update it gives exception access violation and is not functional in Windows 11. I'm likely not the target audience for this type of game, however it is a nice time waster and stress unwinder. I've played card games in the past and had some enjoyment, but often the graphics were fairly poor. The graphics here are very nice. The cards look real and like very nice decks. There are plenty of games to play and the bonus games add to the value.

    Jewel Match Solitaire is a solitaire derived card matching game that seems to have been copied, reskinned + pasted onto Steam several times so the developers can get paid for several times for the same game. After all, game development is all about the money, not creating things of value for gamers. There's a few bells and whistles and different game modes which differentiate this slightly from sol.exe, but not enough to make it worthwhile (in fact some of the gameplay is more annoying than a…

    Okay, it's like this: If you like this particular type of solitaire game (and I admit I'm a bit addicted to them) this is an *excellent* one. The cards are easy to see, insteead of being on some fancy design--though they are a fancy design themselves: The face cards are gorgeous. This is one of those games where you earn coins as you play that you can then spend as you please at the "store" for items to make your games (hopefully) easier. You also collect emeralds which are used to rebuild…

    Casual card game from an indie developer. Very similar to other type of solitaire games that are available on steam. It follows the standard type of choosing cards to are before or after the card on your deck, but it doesn't which color it is. The only difference with standard solitaire is that the cards are placed in various ways, and you have a variety of tricks you can do. The tricks range from undo to pulling a card that is on screen. Overall, super simple enjoyable game. It doesn't…

    One of the better solitaire games out there. Although not my favorite, I appreciate that it has a dozen more solitaire games in it, rather than simply the usual stuff. I even found some variations I didn't know, and really liked. The graphics are nice, but why are the cards so ugly? I settled on the alternative set, but the letters on them are horribly deformed and hard to read. I got used to it in the end, but I was this close to dezipping the graphics file for the card sets and replacing the…

    Honestly, 90% of the solitaire games on Steam are based on Golf Solitaire. This one does offer other modes, as unlockable "bonus" games, but you aren't required to play them (except for one achievement). If you've played Fairway, Faerie, or Regency, you've really experienced this kind of solitaire already. It's about the same. It's competently made, inoffensive, inexpensive. There's certainly other solitaires I'd recommend over this one (like Shadowhand or Solitairica), but at the same time, I…

Jewel Match Solitaire listed many of those different games on its page, so that's what I thought I was getting.

It restarts when it gets the focus again, but slows things down needlessly and since I wanted card games to play on the side while multitasking, basically defeats the purpose for me --…

    If you enjoy Solitaire like myself you will enjoy this game. Lots of levels to play, nice soundtrack and levels you can actual get by without using all your coins on Wild cards or Jokers! I like the artwork, you build 5 castles which once completed can be used as wallpapers and the bonus games are fun and break up the game a bit (with 12 different games). I recommend getting it on sale if you can as a nice way to spend your time when breaking from more taxing games.

    Pretty standard fare as far as Tri Peaks/Golf solitaire goes. Theme is kind of fun; nothing novel, though. Where the game really shines is its inclusion of variant solitaire games (some more uncommon than others). I found myself playing those more than the main game.

    The first 50 levels are enjoyable solitaire fun, but after that point I found the game dragged hard. It was just complete stubbornness to get all the achievements that kept me going lol I know most people really like having hundreds of levels, but for me personally, this would've been better with half that. If you love solitaire, then this is a great buy, specially if you can get it in one of those cheap bundles.

You do your Solitaire matches and then get to build a castle! There is also an item shop to help you out as needed. Want trophies? The game has trophies! I have to point out that one of the achievements refuses to work for me: "Fanatic" (aka play 5 Hours) and I played double that amount.

I wish I could gives stars in such a case, as the game is enjoyable (although, pretty much similar to Regency Solitaire). There is not much Jewel matching in here...

    Like all the other Jewel Match Solitaire it's a solid puzzle game. This one feels pretty dated compared to the others with some jank they ironed out in later titles, but the gameplay is good. I recommend picking this one up if you're a fan of the other games, but I'd say play a more modern one if this is gonna be your first Jewel Match Solitaire game.

    Not a huge fan of having to complete castles before moving past a certain point. The random nature of Solitaire and finding the dang emeralds leads to repeating levels or using the shop to buy special cards. But, overall it's an enjoyable solitaire game. Hours of content here depending on how lucky you get with the cards.

    Really great game. I see the players not recommending the game mention that they are unable to perfect the levels, my suggestion would be to play the game. Do not grind to complete the levels. Once you have enough money, you can purchase everything in the shop and then go back to the levels you were unable to complete. Even the bonus games you can complete at a later stage. Just play the game and have fun.

    after playing through all the "missions" you can keep playing all the different bonus solitaire games that come with the game, I love that. my only complaint is there is no option to move the cards to the foundation piles yourself so there's one solitaire game, Osmosis I believe, that you just sit there and every time you draw from the card pile it automatically moves all the cards for you, it's not fun so I don't play that one, there's no skill involved if all the cards get moved for you
