is a new version of the classic solitaire game "Aces Up".
It is known by many other names including Aces High, Four Aces, Firing Squad, Drivel, and of course, Idiot's Delight.
The original version of this card game is quite difficult, with your chances of winning averaging only about 1 in 20. But this version of the game introduces a number of alternate rules that improve the odds considerably. With skill, strategy, and a bit of luck, you may win half your hands.
In addition to the alternate rules, it includes a number of features including four levels of difficulty, ten levels of undo, the ability to select hands at random or by number (999999 different deals are possible), full statistics (including games played, games won, winning percentage, and average score), selectable card backs, selectable background colors, "Move Alert" option (lets you know if there are any more plays to be made), game save, music, and sound effects.
