Microsoft Solitaire IOS Freecell Bug

RidleyDeckard · Mar 28, 2019

I installed the IOS version of Solitaire and have been trying to play the daily challenges, but I keep running into a bug while playing Freecell games.

I know all cards have to be placed sequentially and red on black and black on red, but there are time when the game won't let me move a stack onto another one, so for example, I had Q(R)-J(B)-10(R)-9(B)-8(R)-7(B)-6(R)-5(B) and wanted to move it onto a black
King, which should be valid as the Queen was red, but the game insisted it wasn't a valid move and forced me to return them. This is making completing games really tricky as if a move is deemed as invalid, it can make progression impossible.

To add on, even though there is no official support there. It's a great place to get community support so might not be a bad idea to head on over there.

Hopefully the devs patch the game soon for you!

Hi there,

The Microsoft Casual games community is just other players like yourself since I don't think there is any technical support on that site anymore.

Microsoft usually patches bug's in their casual games pretty fast so just make sure the app is updated from your app store. You can always uninstall the app and re-install to make sure you have the latest version.

Thanks for that. I just posted a question there. I did try the link for

"Having Technical Support Issues? Talk to one of our representatives live now!"

But that just give a 404 error;

Ooops! What happened to this page?

We’ve moved some things around.

Your best bet would be to post this in the Microsoft casual games website, then the correct team can investigate the bug, and fix it. https://community.microsoftcasualgames.com/

Actually that is how Freecell works, you can move a number of card based on the free cells you have available. In the screen you provide you have one free cell on top right (unless you got the pile from there) and one free cell in the four single slots on
top. This means you can actually move 3 (2) cards maximum at a time. Since you have 8 in the pile, that is not a valid move. No bugs there.

What you're trying to do would be valid in games like klondike or spider where there's no limit to the stack.
