A Solitaire Mystery v1.5.9

A Solitaire Mystery is a clever and unexpectedly varied take on the humble solitaire genre. Rather than offering one long-running ruleset, it collects over 20 unusual solitaire card games: some play like familiar decks and standards, while others are experimental reworkings that bend the rules into new directions. Along the way you’ll do things you don’t normally associate with solitaire - grow and harvest plants, face eldritch monsters, perform alchemy, and even play poker - which keeps each session feeling fresh.

Each mini‑game carries its own difficulty rating and tracks your victory streaks, so you can chase consistency on the ones you enjoy most. The whole experience is fully mouse‑driven and comes with thoughtful options: more lenient undoing for a forgiving experience, and the ability to use a specified random seed so you can replay the same deal (or share it with a friend). Those quality‑of‑life touches boost replayability and make experimentation appealing rather than frustrating.

The collection’s strength is variety. If you’re a solitaire fan who appreciates creative rulecraft and little mechanical surprises, ASM delivers a steady stream of short, focused challenges. If you prefer a single, classic solitaire with a strict rulebook, some of the more experimental entries may feel odd - but that oddness is exactly the point for players who like new twists.

A Solitaire Mystery was even included in the 2025 Experimental Games Workshop at GDC, which underlines its inventive approach. The game can be downloaded on Steam, making it easy to try its eclectic mix of card puzzling and small systems-driven surprises. Overall, it’s a worthwhile pick for anyone who wants solitaire with personality and variety.
