I love it when people talk about games I haven't played, Especially the Hard ones, then I'll go and try them out. Archway is one of them, it is addicting. Thanks and everyone have a nice Valentines Day |

Malmaison is a great new game. Has anybody won this one yet? If so, what game #? |

Hi Ken
61 games of Malmaison with a highest score of 140 and got to 3 empty spaces have been played so far so no luck from me
still to win Bedeviled, Long tail and Pumpkin as well although my brother has won the last two
I thought six by 4 was very hard but did win it once |

Paul, Try #698319937 for Pumpkin. Still trying on Malmaison, my best score is 132. This game reminds me of Eighty Thieves, and we all know how hard that one was. Is E still around?? Maybe she could help us on Malmaison like she did on Eighty Thieves! |

I like the new games and i make all of them now. Malmasion was the hardest one, but i made it.
The winning game was #410867233. Have some one make one of the old ones, as Picture patience, Boudoir, kings and Aces, could you give the winning game

Anon, Thanks so much for the winning # for Malmaison. It took me trying that # about 20 times but I finally got it. Sorry I can't help you with the other games but they are notoriously difficult! |

Thanks so much for the winning number for Malmaison took me about 20 goes as well
still in true form I have written the moves out if anybody is still having sleepless nights trying to win it. just ask and give your email address and i will send them.
for some reason no luck with long tail but still only 11 to go now
also the others are not won yet
still having loads of trouble with German Patience though as game 1447477760 seems to be winnable by everybody except me even as i have the moves from Cara

I like learning about new games. It took me 4 tries to win Long Tail (1307992192) Then I won the 5th
game, too (494024225). I had thought it was not going to work out at first, but I kept moving things. Long Tail reminds me of Spider Web, which I like to play on Action Sol. Jerri |

Could someone please give me some hints on Malmaison? I've been playing #410867233 and I can't get above the score of 138. I don't want the moves - at least not yet. Just a few hints would be great!

Paul - you can make the tail as long as possible without falling off the screen. But you should try to make suits on the tail too and then move a whole suit back to the tableau so the tail gets shorter at once. It's also possible to deal when there's an empty space in the tableau, and move the tiles between empty columns, if they get covered by an inconvenient tile.
I played 42 games, won them all. Not enough yet for submitting, but until I'll do that, some others probably play 1000 times the same game. |

It looks as though this thread was finished 2-3 years ago. I have been playing malmaison for at least 2 years about 1910 games now and have never won. Anyway has anyone been able to win it since, I have a feeling there is a flaw in the game. I guess I will just keep playing as i love the game and seem to get so close. My husband thinks Im crazy to keep going. Any more hints, thanks |

Perform a search in the "Is It Winnable" section of this forum Judy. Type in "Malmaison" and you will find some winning numbers. There is also at least one winning game which has been uploaded. You can download it into your own PC and use undo and redo to find out how it was won. |

I've worked hard at bedeviled #2010987680 but get nowhere. For some reason I can't get the completed 13 card series to jump up to the right hand places. Is there a secret approach to it? |

Sets headed by black kings will only go on the two rightmost cells (where the green arrows are). Ones headed by red kings will only go on the two cells to the left of those. You have to drag and drop sets into place. |

This is probably better than an explanation Audrey. |
