I wasn't going to review any of the packaged with windows games, however, today I finished a game of Spider Solitaire in only 75 moves thrashing all my old records and this is the easiest way to boast.
So yeah after 788 deals I finally think I can say I have beaten this game, also after 788 deals I couldn't honestly say it is anything but a great game. Truly one of the greatest advantages to the computer age is no longer having to shuffle or maintain cards. Try playing this with real cards and you would go insane after the 3rd game.
Why Spider Solitaire and not any other card game? I find that it sits at that perfect balance of skill, luck and difficulty which keeps the brain active whilst not taxing it too much for the perfect after work calm down.
