AC is def my Achilles' Heel. Time beats me often, and it seems to me the time it takes for the cards to flip open/shut on ipad game is needlessly prolonged. I checked recently, looks to be a full second per flip. A bit hard to be accurate. Mom says she flips rapdily. Dunno how, on my game Flipping time is preset and cannot be sped up by me.

Also, if you make a wrong match, on my game, the first card you flipped also closes. Start again. I presume this happens in all versions? Cause that is a source of a lot of lost seconds.

I invariably use an eyeglass to preview immediately. My thinking is, quickly remove 4 or 6 cards, and there are fewer to have to flip, and fewer wrong flips to make. But the preview time is very brief.

Up until yesterday, I have been completing it by memory alone. Now I know how to screen shot/pause etc, but actually, so far it isnt faster. I lose a few seconds faffing around. No doubt I will refine that method in time.

I think I have also noticed more adjacent cards recently. Am gonna try doing 2 columns at once, thanks for that tip.

My huge beef with AC is, it mostly costs me a clock and an eyeglass, and yet the %#{**+ sods have programmed the game to deny you the win, even when solved, making you attempt it multiple times at high expense. I can only afford the clocks that I get by combining, as I have sworn and vowed M will not get another red cent.

To me this (AC and HL) makes SN look a lot like online gambling/lottery rather than a game of skill. Since we all pay to play, (and believe me, I did) and my digital assets are being whittled down because rewards are witheld deliberately, does that not seem more than a little deceptive? Be interested in views. Great thread, btw. Thanks for all the help and support. 🌏🙃
