"This game is the result of months of work, and the input of over 150 beta testers. It is our finest work to date, and sets a new standard of quality in Palm OS gaming," said Scott Corley, President of Red Mercury. "We’re not claiming this game is good - our 154 beta testers told us it was great. We’re taking their word for it."

Game Play And All

As with all Red Mercury games, the focus is on every minute detail of the game, including graphic design, simple usability, quick response, and of course game play. It’s the game play that has led to Red Mercury’s success since its first release, AcidFreecell™, in 1999.

All Red Mercury games can be downloaded and tried for free, so players can have a taste of each game. The colorful graphics and high-resolution support catch people’s attention, but it is the game play that kicks in the addiction response. If Red Mercury has done its job right, the game will take on a new role in the player’s life, taking time away from friends and loved ones, and possibly causing job loss.
