Bolitaire is a freecell clone made for dos, ported to Linux, BeOS and Windows(Qnx and MacOS port will be available in near future). Bolitaire stands for bootable solitaire. It can be used along with bootable freedos floppy to boot bolitaire dos edition. So, you dont need a harddisk to run Bolitaire. This comes handy when your hard disk crashes. Enjoy!
Reviewer: Casualbob2287 Free Cell is a classic game that has been enjoyed by individuals for years and now it is available as a clone called Bolitaire.
Bolitiare uses the same rules as free cell and for someone like me it was a bit challenging to understand how to play this game, but a brief jaunt over to my internet browser and going to my search engine I type in the words free cell and I’m brought to the website Wikipedia where they give a list of the rules and a fun little tidbit the history of the game which is a rip roaring read for anyone interested in playing the game. After a brief reading and a return to Bolitaire it was time to play!
Clicking the cards becomes a cumbersome task, but eventually it becomes a way to pass the time in a wonderful manner. The game can never gets old because the randomization of the cards that are played. A standard 52 card deck is used that you may find in your own junk draw of local gambling hall. The cards are laid crisply on the green background giving you a visual master piece such as looking Mona Lisa or other works of art by famous renaissance painters. If you click on the card it turns a shade of bluish green. The color is a bit ambiguous and was used for much debate among my fellow collogues. We need to understand that males are more color blind than females so we asked out paralegal Amy who suggested it was a teal.
The icon in the center of the “Free Cells” moves based on the cards you drag to them. It is fun to “freak out” the king that is in the icon because it is just a fun thing to do. Moving back and forth in a quick motion makes the eyes side to side like a shady character in a Flim Nior movie. If you do not know what that style of movie is please consult you internet.
The game can go fast or slow depending how fast you play the game, I understand this is a common sense statement, but some individuals do not have common sense so it was necessary. If you get fed up with the current game start a new one, it is simple. Enjoy the game!
