Faerie Solitaire is a classic solitaire game, wrapped up in a curious little story about some faeries trapped in the woods and such. As you play, more of the story is revealed, along with (early on) a few twists to the gameplay such as frozen cards which must be melted first with a fire card, or thorns that can only be cleared by uprooting a rose.

Faerie Solitaire’s general aim and objective beyond the simple playing of solitaire and the story is to collect money which enables you to unlock special enhancements to the game in Faerie Land, with such useful tweaks as the ability to undo a move, or see how many cards are left in the deck.

Subsoap keep releasing patches with new features. At the time of writing, there used to be a Hidden Object quest game that popped up occasionally, but it has been temporarily removed and will reappear in another patch.

It is a horribly, horribly addictive game. I can’t really explain why. I didn’t think I even liked card games and now I literally cannot stop playing it.

Unfortunately, Subsoap felt the need to remove their demo of Faerie Solitaire… they say “coming soon”, but a member of the panel who didn’t procrastinate was able to enjoy the demo before its removal (since the writing of this panel, the demo is back up). From watching the video, Faerie Solitaire looks like a clone of Fairway Solitaire which was probably one of my favorite casual games last year. Good news is that the developer has provided us with a full version to review in a future issue!
