Solitaire Beach Season 2

One of the best thing about video games in general is the fact that you can enjoy them for a few minutes at a time or for hours on end, unlike many activities that require you to leave the house or get some kind of props. Hence, it’s no wonder that the video games industry is worth a few billions at this point, not to mention the fact that new technologies are constantly being researched.

Solitaire Beach Season 2 is a puzzle game in which your goal is to match cards two-by-two, in order to reach the special cards hidden toward the bottom and get as many of them as you can to pass the levels. It may not sound very complicated, but it gets a tad more annoying when you realize that there are very few options at your disposal.

On top of that, you have to make sure that your decisions are sound as well, especially when there are multiple possible matches on the board. Hence, the wrong choices can cause you to be unable to make any more matches when you really need to, which causes a forced restart. On the other hand, you can make use of a few special cards to get out of sticky situations.

Thus, you can shuffle all the cards and see whether a different arrangement is better for your situation, although that’s not always the case. You can also turn back time one round and change your mind, as well as use jokers as a stand-in for any other card on the board. However, all of these power-ups come in limited supplies, and you have to spend in-game currency to replenish them, or wait for special occasions.

Not much can be said about the graphics quality, but then again this is not the type of game that impresses from a visual point of view. You can choose between multiple card patterns and themes, and the levels take place in various environments along the way, so at least there’s a satisfying amount of variety. Other than that, there’s not much to see, except for the background artwork.

In the end, Solitaire Beach Season 2 is not much of a revelation in the genre, especially since it’s not very complex either. However, it has the spark required to keep you playing for a few hours if you have nothing better to do.
