Seahaven Towers 1.6.1 For Microsoft Windows
This is Seahaven Towers, a solitaire card game featured in the
San Jose Mercury News Computing section (5JUN94). The goal of this
game is to arrange the deck of cards into the four suits. The game
begins with the entire deck visible, and you must rearrange the cards
and move them into the order Ace, 2, 3, ... King.
Changes from version 1.6.1 to 1.6:
- Fixed a bug that would cause the program not to run.
Changes from version 1.5 to 1.6:
- Daniel Di Bacco created some beautiful card backs and a new icon
for the game. Be sure to check out the "Seahaven" card back, it
will change depending on the time of day you start the game (or
when you select it from the Options menu, too.)
Changes from version 1.0 to 1.5:
Version 1.5 was much improved over version 1.0. The changes made are:
- added large card images, good for 800x600 and up resolutions
- added a longest winning streak and a longest losing streak
to the score history
- improved card interaction, it is now much easier to drop cards
around the screen (the cards only have to touch, the cursor no
longer must be over the place where you want to move the card).
- fixed a memory leak bug
- fixed some display refresh problems
Additional features of the game include:
- a status bar that tells you why a move can not be made
- sound effects that can be toggled on or off
- an autoplay mode that automates the tedium of making obvious moves
- more than one game can be played at a time; game windows can be
iconified, and all games and window positions are remembered across
sessions
- full undo and redo, all the way back to the start of the game
- a win & loss history is kept, and the history can be cleared
when the losses start to pass the wins :-)
This game is shareware, and I am asking for a $10 registration fee. This
version of the game is a demonstration version, and has all of the above
features, except that two of the features have been limited: the autoplay
will only move cards Ace through 6, you will have to move cards 7 - King
yourself, and the Undo/Redo will only operate on the last three moves. In
the registered version, autoplay works on all of the cards, and Undo/Redo
will work all the way back to the start of the game. The registered
version will also allow you to start a game over from the beginning.
If you have any questions, comments, or bug reports, please send them to
