Entertaining and addictive

I own several computer solitaire games, and Burning Monkey Solitaire is by far my favorite. I love the antics of the monkeys, the music, and the wide variety of solitaire games from which to choose. The music fits the tenor of the game perfectly, but you can include your own mp3 files if you would prefer other music. I love the online statistics - a real challenge to move up in the ranks. There are lots of "Easter eggs" too - suprise animations that activate when clicking specific areas of the board or typing names. If your computer is online, the monkey's jokes get updated frequently, so they are always fresh. (I mean the jokes are always fresh, but then so are the monkeys.) Burning Monkey Solitaire is entertaining, addictive, and just plain fun. Great fun for any age.

BMS rules!

Apparently the guy from Gaithersburg has a standard all his own. I don't see how anyone would not enjoy BMS. Who in their right mind knows 26 versions of Solitaire? I didn't. Now I have even more ways to distract myself. Luckily I'm self-employed. The graphics are great, the monkeys are so well done that I show my friends the antics (and eventually I do turn them off when playing...after I've heard them all a few times), the card playing is seamless, and the help menus effective. I'm so happy with this game I've bought all three versions of it, and am also a fan of the Burning Monkey Mahjong Solitaire.

Solitaire at its hilarious best!

Burning Monkey Solitaire can't really be compared to other solitaire games. Twenty-six different types of solitaire will keep you occupied for years, and the humor will keep you coming back for more. Cute clever characters are entertaining and easter eggs will help relieve frustration in a difficult game. From cheating options to the ability to "fetch a winnable game," the game is customizable beyond belief. This game is recommended to all!

Burning Monkey Solitaire ROCKS!

If you like solitaire you will love this game! The graphics are amazing and there are so many games to play, you'll never be bored. As an extra addition, you can be ranked online with the other players. You will find yourself competing to become #1 in the game of your choice and there is a webpage to keep track of your games (and your cheats!) The monkeys are a hoot a minute and the jokes get updated. Loads of easter eggs too. A MUST HAVE!

Throw Some Water on These Burning Monkeys

Don't waste your time or money on this one. These are the same old solitaire games that can be played with some strange-looking (sometimes hard to read) decks of cards. The monkeys DON'T chatter or talk - they use cartoon-like balloons to silently tell lame jokes or toss out insults. This gets old almost immediately. It is possible to turn off the monkey nonsense but that is all there is to set this apart from other solitaire software in the first place.

There are a few cute/clever visual elements, but these are hardly enough to recommend the Burning Monkeys.

There are lots of other, much better, solitaire collections. If you are a solitaire fan, choose one of the others instead.

Barrel Full of Laughs!

Having owned versions One and Two of Burning Monkey Solitaire I was sure that version three would not let me down. From the minute I started the game I found it to be the most entertaining version yet! Great game variations, beautiful graphics, and fantastic music! Most of all, this version includes more laughs from those lovable monkeys. What fun! Even my kids enjoy this game! And who wouldn't? Great job Freeverse! You have a customer for life!

They sing, They Dance, Oh, and the card games are fun, too

How could you NOT enjoy a game with Burning Monkeys? Want to know why? ... select the 'Why Burning?' menu option or type 'burn' into the playing window. I really disliked most solitaire card games, but this game got me hooked. Just when you think you can't win, a monkey asks, "What's the time called between stepping on a banana peel and hitting the ground?" ... another answers, "1 bananosecond!" ... got to love it... and the jokes automatically update if you've got an internet connection.

FUN FOR ANY AGE : )
