Freecell (Microsoft Solitaire Collection)


I love Freecell. I used to play for ages. I used to keep track of the numbers of the games that I had won so I wouldn't play duplicates (which is pretty statistically unlikely anyway). I used the keyboard shortcut where you could select and move columns using the numpad instead of clicking (and it was much faster).

Well, that numpad shortcut is gone as far as I can tell, and that's extremely frustrating to me.

The win animation varies randomly, too. In the video above, they turn into fireworks. The first time I won, they turned into butterflies. Another time, they did the nostalgic jumping and bouncing thing. But none of the animations go until the end... it cuts itself off to offer you another round.

So, it has its problems, but it's still Freecell. And I'm still really good at it, which makes me feel good.
