Anyone know if this is winnable? I have tried about 12 times. When I can clear the stoppers in the left column then I can't get any nines when I need them. Any tips / info? |

>Anyone know if this is winnable? Yes, this game is winnable, although their are so many moves that I am not sure how to describe the winning strategy. When I played, the rightmost pile was the first emptied, and I did not clear the leftmost until the final cards were moved, but by that time I had several spaces emptied and victory was basically assured. I hope that helps a little. |

It was very easy, just don't let the game pull you too much to the left when there are other options. Before the last deal I even had to scatter a suit of cards so that all the spaces are filled before a deal. For some reason, when I wanted to look at it again to see how I started, all my statistics were gone. Tom: could it happen that I clicked "clear" by mistake, the statistic in the game screen got emptied, and the general statistics on the main screen shows two games? I'm the only player. |

Thank you Gregg and Rachel, I will try it some more then. I was actually trying to go left because I think I was trying to get some 4s, I don't recall. So I will try again. Thank you both again, very much. |

OK, that did it. By concentrating on the right all the nines came loose, and still the fours were free at the end. Thank you |

If you clicked on clear while in the stats when you are in a game, and then go back to the menu, the menu should update with 0 scores, so I don't think that's what happened. |

Tom: Ignore this question about the statistics two messages ago. I played the Spider one suit, and when I checked in again, I probably entered Big Spider one suit. |
