The Solitaire Conspiracy
Did you really put in Solitaire? What's next, a cutting edge rendition of Tetris? Fear not, as The Solitaire Conspiracy is far different from what you might expect. It's a twist on the popular card game, with a cheesy but engaging story set in the world of espionage. In short, your goal is to form an alliance with spies with a common goal of defeating a criminal mastermind. Each crew's mechanic is a bit different, so you will need to think strategically to get the best outcome. All in all, The Solitaire Conspiracy is a solid card game with a good atmosphere and kickass music. What more do you need?
