Progressive Klondike Solitaire
History
Logicom began creating casino and card/chance games from the very beginning with their successful The Casino and Yahtzee packages. Later, they created a series of "Progessive" games that featured progressive jackpots. Klondike Solitaire was one of the games in this series.
Progressive Klondike Solitaire was sold, along with most Logicom products, to Soft Arts in 1997.
The game of Klondike Solitaire is a simple, one-player card game where the object is to end up with four stacks of cards, one per suit, in order with aces first, at the bottom, and kings, at the top. The cards are dealt out in seven stacks, with each stack having one mor ecard face down underneath than the previous. The remaining cards are left in the deck, and are gone through in threes. Cards of black suit may only be placed on cards of red suit, and cards of red only on black. Cards and stacks must be placed on one another in descending order only. When a stack is moved off of a card, which is face down, that card is turned up and may be played. The asterisk which occasionally appears on or near the deck denotes that the deck's top three cards are the ones currently shown. Features full ANSI graphics.
Gameplay
The game was a full ANSI game featuring ANSI cards and full screen drawing. Commands were entered at a prompt toward the bottom, and instruction/information messages came below the prompt.
