Line up all 9 cards inside the grid so that each row and column add up to 21.
The game uses Pontoon/Blackjack scoring rules, so Jacks, Queens and Kings are each worth 10, and Aces can count as either 1 or 11. You can Play Pontoon Grid in the Shoebox under the Misc games. Views 128, Upvotes 16

This week's game sees you trying to place the cards in such a manner that all rows and columns add up to 21.
The game should be fairly easy to solve, as long as you remember the card values. Jack, Queen and King are all worth 10. Aces can be either 1 or 11. Views 100, Upvotes 12

As I was drifting off to sleep, my mind was racing for a decent Foldapuz concept for the week.
I thought about cards, and considered a grid of 5x5 cards. Views 104, Upvotes 14

Try to score as close to 21 as you can, without going over.
Once you've stuck/bust, AL will take his turn, trying to beat your score. The closest to 21 wins the round, and the first to three wins is the overall winner. Views 169, Upvotes 37

Swapping Allowed
Blog
22nd June 2019
As per @RSKGames' suggestion, I've added a couple of Swap mechanics to Tower solitaire.
You can swap any free cards in the tower, but only when they're on the same row. You can also swap the topmost card amongst the dealt piles, too. There's not a LOT of things you can swap, but hopefully it should be enough to make things a little bit easier in the 5 and 6 tower modes.

As the collection grows ever onwards, people send feedback for the various oddities that I create.
You can Play Tower Solitaire in the Shoebox, under the Card Games. @RSKGames says..For regular Solitaire players this version might need some time to get used to as the card that is required to build the tower is not one less or one more of the cards in stack but follows a simple rule. Yeah, it's a slightly different strategy, but it makes things a lot tougher when you en... Views 62, Upvotes 12

A new Solitaire card game, today. The aim is to try to reach the top of the tower by matching cards.

Tower Solitaire
Game
21st June 2019
Try to build up the pyramid by placing cards which match both of the cards below, by suit or value.
You can swap free cards on the same level, or replace them entirely with dealt cards of the same suit or value, but only if the card has no card above it. You win if you can reach the very top. Views 120, Upvotes 29

I might switch up a tiny rule for the Tower Solitaire game.
Instead of having a Swap Pile, I think I might instead make the "3 dealt cards" spread out into three distinct piles. I'll have a play with this rule, today, and see which appears to work the best. Other than that, I guess I need to start thinking about next week's Petit-Switch game, and figuring out what else needs to be done with the Browsercade framework. I still haven't added any kind of Redefine Joypad thing... Views 24, Upvotes 3

Name That Solitaire

20th June 2019
I woke up with a Solitaire game in my head.. As you do!
Figured I'd code it, and see how it turned out, and .. Yeah, it's quite playable! Currently near-impossible, but I think having a "Swap Pile" should help that quite a bit. Basic rules. You can place Same Suit/Value card atop each other in the pyramid. If a card matches the Suit/Value of both of the two adjacent cards, you may place the card in the row above. (eg, if you have a 2 of hearts in your hand, and the two card... Views 52, Upvotes 10

Can you consider making a version of the new AGAW JS mega compilation into an electron app so that you can retain the online scoreboard. In a electron app I think you can restrict users getting into the dev console. I'll have a look into it. Views 58, Upvotes 13

Me and Michael Fernie have been emailing back and forth, today, all about the recent Shoebox additions, and player feedback.
Lots of new games added to Shoebox. Very nice. Seems like you are getting a bunch of comments too. That is exciting because people are playing. Indeed. Unlike my previous 400 games, these ones actually seem to be popular!! I'm not sure if that's a good or a bad thing! Views 67, Upvotes 10

"Putt" your cards onto the green. Putted card should be of value one higher or lower than the card on the green.
