Thanks.

I too am addicted to freecell, and have on computers and most devices.  I had this one and removed it. This is the one that plays advertisements on youtube while you are trying to play the game. The 2nd one that I got is FreeCell(Free). It also has ads, but they are on a side board. This is an instance where I would gladly pay for the app to avoid the ads. Not sure which one to get though.

A lot of times you can avoid the ads if you turn wi-fi off before you start playing. |

Thanks for that tip. I tried to play it on our cruise about 10 days ago and it said that I could not proceed without wifi. However, it does work here at home with the wifi off. Seems to be my week for weird computer stuff happening. I guess I was just getting too complacent.  Stan |

Glad it worked for you! I use that trick on a lot of games that have ads. |

I certainly would not mind paying for an ad-free solitaire game. Any recommendations? Thanks.

There are no ads on the ones I linked above and it's free too. |

I downloaded a version of solitaire and it must have been bugged, because every time i opened the game, it just started completing itself! I'll give that freecell version a go, i'll have more games than books at this rate  |

I got the "need Internet connection" message again. It relates to the t mobile ad in the sideboard. Now I,m not sure if it's the app or some feature on the Fire. I,m going to look at the paid solitaire apps.

Update: Got the "Aces Solitaire Pack 2" for $2.99. Lot's of different games and easy to use. I read the customer reviews and some of the complaints relate to the users not taking advantage of the options. I'll post back if there any further problems.

there are a few solitaire games I like.
1.) Montana
2.) Triple Stack
3.) Spit {but I think this one isn't truly a solitaire game but you play it against the computer}

The ACES Pack 2 has a popup ad saying to buy pack 1 for 60 more puzzles. Since I bought pack 2 for no ads, this ticks me off.

This is my new "favorite" - addictive, even though I have yet to win a game (probably why it's addictive - games are fairly quick, I keep thinking "next time I'll win!") Pyramid Solitaire, it's free.  |
