Absolute Yukon Solitaire v1.0

Absolute Yukon Solitaire is a collection of solitaire card games based on the classic game of Yukon, which traditionally ranks as one of the favorite solitaires of all time. Absolute Yukon Solitaire includes both familiar favorites and new games invented specifically for this collection, and available nowhere else. All of the games in Absolute Yukon Solitaire share the peculiar Yukon rule that groups of cards may be moved from one tableau pile to another without having to be in sequence. Unlike games such as Klondike (i.e. `regular solitaire`), in which groups of cards may only be moved when they are in the proper order, Yukon-type games provide for much more freedom of movement. This often translates into games requiring more skill than luck. The end result is much more challenging and addictive solitaires! Absolute Yukon Solitaire is advertising supported software. A version without ads is available for purchase on the Absolute Yukon web site.

Strike-A-Light v.2.00

"My part in the project was to devise a simulation that would help train a Strike X-1 operative in the strategic requirements of the weapon, to help recognise in the field exactly when was the best time to strike. The simulation did not originally contain the 'permanent conversion' of an individual. Now that I know this is possible, I have quickly re-compiled the simulation to take this into account. When I played the first 'game' of the new simulation, I suddenly realised the awesome power of the Strike X-1. Perhaps it can be used for good as well as evil? I deeply regret my part in this project, I was blinded by the excitement of the new technology, not fully understanding the means to which it would eventually be used. I now know the truth. Thanks to a colleague in the Ministry of Temporal Science, I now have a chance to seek solace. Although I cannot alter what has already happened, I can at least make an attempt to forewarn those who have yet to exist. Do not ask how I know these things. All I request is that you use the simulation often. Master the art of the last Strike - your freedom of will depends upon it..." This simulation was designed to train operatives in the strategic use of the Strike X-1, a mind altering weapon of the future. Play against the computer, or with your friends and family, either individually or as teams. Original strategic gameplay, multiple board sizes, nine difficulty levels, undo and redo, skins, save games and play-by-email. Master the last Strike. Who strikes last, strikes best. Your freedom of will depends on it!
