Hardwood Solitaire III - The Next Generation of Solitaire
Silver Creek Entertainment has released Hardwood Solitaire III for Windows, a
collection of more than 80 solitaire card games with stunning full-color
graphics, original MIDI music, intriguing sound effects, and captivating 3D game
play. Capitalizing on advances in video cards and computer processing speeds,
Hardwood Solitaire III delivers all of the fun and challenge of traditional
solitaire games, while significantly advancing their entertainment value.
Unlike solitaire games that plunk bare-bones cards onto your screen, Hardwood
Solitaire III immerses you in a magical 3D environment with Complex background
scenes, clever visual and sound effects, and soothing music. With more than 80
games to choose from, and a variety of difficulty levels, it's easy to find an
exciting, new solitaire game to play.
Every action that you take has subtle graphical effects and ambient sounds
associated with it, giving a sense of enchantment to the game play. Hardwood
Solitaire III's lighting effects tie the imagery together, and create a
fantastic, inviting environment..
Game play is very intuitive, with both drag-and-drop and automatic card
movements available. Detailed online help is always a click away. You can
customize the look and feel of the game, including card animation, auto-play,
auto-finish, many visual and audio effects, and even the avatar that you choose
to represent yourself. Instead of pressing hotkeys or clicking menus, you can
create subtle mouse gestures that let you perform
operations such as undo and redo.
Players can create their own environments, and share them with friends and
family. In addition to altering the background scenes, lighting effects, and
sounds, you can create custom images on the card decks that you play with.
Hardwood Solitaire III comes with a variety of environments and decks, and free
user-created selections are available from a number of Hardwood Solitaire III
enthusiasts' web sites.
When you need a break from your computer work, don't run a card game program
that looks like a Windows utility. Immerse yourself in a fantastic 3D
world, surround yourself with magical music, and relax with Hardwood Solitaire
III.
Hardwood Solitaire III runs under Windows 95/98/Me/NT4/2000/XP, costs
$24.95(US), and may be purchased securely online at http://www.hardwoodsolitaire.com/.
You can download a free, 30-day trial version from the same Internet address.
While Hardwood Solitaire III is fun to play on a Pentium 200 with 24-bit
graphics, its 3D effects are even more compelling on a faster computer with a 3D
video card.
