Quick Look: Regency Solitaire

I was more invested in this Quick Look than I should've been.

Since you were talking about "rules of solitaire" and whatnot, I thought I'd mention that solitaire is a type of card game you play by yourself, not a specific game with specific rules. The Windows game Solitaire plays a solitaire game called Klondike.

no lies that perfect hand run was entertaining

This looks like the PERFECT commute game...but it is sadly not available on phones...YET! I'm hoping. Cause I'd play the BUSINESS out of this on a train...

Watching this stressed me out way more than it should've

After lurking on Giant Bomb for years, this video finally made me come out and say:

Great job, Vinny and Alex! I should return the rest of this seat because I only needed the edge.

I feel like, for a heavily puzzly game like this, having a randomly shuffled deck is pretty fucked.

You sold me, Alex. I think my mom will like this game! I went ahead and bought it. It's "on sale" for $3 at the moment

Oh my god. This actually looks really fun. Probably going to pick it up.

Well thanks, Patrick. Now I have to pause and find out what the heck Snakebird is.

Vinny at the end there with the multiple voices was pretty fantastic. Quite possibly one of my favorite Giant Bomb moments.

Given that I ended up really getting into Faerie Solitaire, maybe I should check this out.

Also, I can confirm that they do indeed need to play Snakebird. That game is fantastic.

I've never read a Dan Brown book, but I will say Emma is pretty good. It's not Jane Austin's most popular book, but I think it's her best and would recommend that you watch the Gwyneth Paltrow movie. It's less than 2 hours so it's much less of a commitment than reading the book, if you ever feel like giving her a second chance. Fair warning: It is quite silly.

Pearl necklace, wack and jack off, and the amazing commentary. Vinny is surely something else!

Man, got really tense there at the end. Maybe I'll add this to my steam wishlist. This was oddly satisfying.

I heard vinny say "burn that J" The duder abides!

This QL got me to boot up my version of Window's Solitaire. There were no bats.

As with most pro-level Solitaire play, the end of this video could have used some Air Horn.

Fairway Solitaire is really well done. It has fun little cartoons and a pretty funny running commentary over the gameplay as if you were playing a televised game of golf. It is the first ios game that I enjoyed so much I wanted to give them some money. I spent good amount of money on clubs (that can be used as cards when needed) and powerups (not more than an average console game). I spent many more hours playing that then some of those console games. That said, I'm probably sold on this when it becomes available for ios.

@greyalien: I hope you see a bump from all of this. I really appreciated the aesthetics of it and picked up a copy. For my wife of course. >.>

Why the heck is this not on iOS :( I wanted this pretty bad after watching but not for PC.

Edit: I see the dev posting in here. Hope you two can export a good mobile version soon. Seems so well suited for it!

great quick look!

Pride and Prejudice with Solitaire

holy fuck, that went down to the wire there. genuine sigh of relief after. fantastic quick look.

Yeah, nice QL but I agree, I don't want to come within 100 yards of that game ever!

What! What? ... What.

How is a Jane Austen-esque solitaire game the most satisfying quick look of the year for me?

You know, I didn't know how Vinny was going to do it, but holy shit he did find a way to make this intense.

If only this game was pro-wrestling themed.

I don't know why I enjoyed this as much as I did.

So I can relate to Alex not understanding his love.

Patrick cameo! I still dig solitaire in the year 2015 and this version of is kind of cool.

Robot solitaire deck was the best deck.

Snakebird and Regency Solitaire -- two fantastic games in one Quick Look!

Faerie Solitaire was awesome in a weird way. I'm tempted to get this and do some more solitairing. Although I should probably just replay and finish Faerie Solitaire rather than spending money on another solitaire game.

Hey, Patrick's playing Snakebird.

As others have said, a similar style of Solitaire was used in Faerie Solitaire and that game was great fun. The Solitaire suite on the Windows store also features a similar style, and that is an ad supported free game if you're looking to play something like this but don't have the $$$.

Jesus Christ is Alex the kind of player who can get on the Regency Solitaire pro tour now? He would have gotten eaten alive in the Boston international Classic tournament where guys like Bill "The Shuffler" Williams were still playing. This is the last straw, I'm quitting the Regency Soltaire pro game forever.

I really dislike the art, but the game looks rad.

We discussed Austen for about a month and a half in school, it was the most boring, meaningless shit I ever had to hear, see and learn so I don't think I will give her a second chance.

This is a great Quick Look.

I would also recommend 'Fairway Solitaire', which is very similar to this and in my opinion has a better art-style.

EASILY the most intense quick look ending since Rugby 15'.

I knew it was the one with the bats. I was hoping he'd say that, and he did.

The name is crowley, it rhymes with holy

It isn't crowley, that rhymes with foully

holy shit who expected this set of solitaire to be so damn exciting

No YOU don't matter Alex! :'(

And thus a classic was born.

I feel like I just watched Alex confront his high society shadow and awaken his Persona.

Has Vinny ever thought about commentating solitaire professionally?

This game had me cheering along to fucking solitaire. I think I might have to pick this up

@larrydavis: "Heavily Puzzly" ? There is NO puzzle in this at all. You click the number above or below the one you have. That is it. It is as "heavily puzzly" as doing addition and subtraction. Or deciding what pair of socks to buy.
