Regency Solitaire II

This game is just as amazing as the first one! I love this series a lot! Solitaire is so relaxing and playing in a Victorian Era setting, makes it even better! 10 out of 10!

As someone who played Regency Solitaire 1 and 100%ed it, I can confidently say that after doing the same for Regency Solitaire 2, I think it is an improvement on the original, and I can recommend it easily. The gameplay is simple: take cards off the board by having them either have one value above or below the card in your discard pile. The trick to it all is to combo your card stacks as much as possible. This is best facilitated by the proper planning and some of the abilities that you unlock. Those abilities are really what set this one above the first game in the series; there are more of them, they are generally better, and they have a decent number of upgrades for each one as well. Regency Solitaire 2 is a simple game that I found to be extremely fun, especially when I was able to perfectly solve the card puzzles. What can I say? It tickles my autistic brain. Even though I don’t have a ton to say about the gameplay, I would say that if you are a fan of puzzles and/or card games, this is a must-play in my opinion. As far as the story goes, it is not my thing, and I mostly ignored it. I think that somebody like my mother, who is a fan of Jane Austin’s works, probably would like something like this. As for me, I really just played it for the gameplay. I am sure another review could give you a better look into the story if something akin to Jane Austin’s works appeals to you, but if you are more like me, then I will say that the story is easy to skip and is well worth dealing with for the gameplay. The sound design is fine. It really isn’t my kind of music, and the simple card and ability feedback sounds are fine, but I really don’t have a ton to say about it all. It is serviceable, but I chose to turn on my own music in the end. Artistically, I think this game is pretty great looking. Of course, it is not like a masterpiece or anything; this game is purely cards, cutscenes, and backgrounds, but the style and art feel cohesive and detailed. It has a bit of that mobile game feel in its style, but honestly, I don’t care. I think that the detailing in the characters and backgrounds creates an experience very fitting for a card game. As for the animations and abilities, they look great and are smooth, so they fit into the game well. Overall, I like how the game looks, even if it is not necessarily the most unique or impressive. All in all, I was a fan of the first Regency Solitaire, and I am now a fan of the sequel. I wrote a lot more in that review, and many of those opinions transfer over to this review as well, so feel free to check that out, but this review is shorter partially because I have so little to complain about and feel that my thoughts are really concise. They are both just really fun card games, and for the price you pay, I think that it is a steal. I put 11 hours into this game, and that is partially because I put another 20+ in the last one and got quite good at it all. So, if you are new to this all you could probably get at least 15 or so hours in the game. Maybe I am weird, but to me, this is peak as far as card games go.

Solitaire the way it was meant to be played. With a heavy Victorian theming and magic super powers. I got a kick out of this. Exactly what it advertises to be. 7/10 Check it out.

Nice.

A nice, relaxing solitaire game.

Regency Solitaire II is a good variation on the pairing lower & higher cards version of Solitaire, with fun and challenging layouts to navigate. I prefer the story of the first game. Great art, decent music. The achievements were distributed such that during a Hard mode run I was able to claim all but one of the gameplay related ones during the course of the story, and the last one fell into place naturally during the bonus levels. I feel that having those bonus levels helped pace things well as it saved me from having to grind through already played content for some more gold. Unlike their card dueler Shadowhand, the character dialogue only occurs at the start and end of the chapter rather than occasionally interspersed between levels. I suppose that does contribute to a more relaxed pace. Shadowhand was geared towards the grind of stocking up goods, with your powers and jokers resetting to their previous state during each retry of every failed level. However, this game allows you to accumulate power charges and jokers in a way that does not reset when you decide to retry the same level. Taking advantage of this different power curve to charge everything is extremely helpful and probably necessary for some of the combos needed near the end of the Hard mode storyline.

If you loved the first game, you will be obsessed with this one! Definite recommend.

This is a very fun gold type card game with a story and power ups. Very enjoyable and relaxing

Very good second part! i love new plot! and gaming was very nice and relaxing!

I found the power ups tiresome, and was disappointed that this game couldn't be made in as small a window as the first one. I've played the first game til it's threadbare, but I don't see myself playing this one more than once, even though I enjoyed the story.
