Added
- Classic Layout: a new setting that moves the control row (foundations, stock, waste, and free cells) above the tableau, the traditional solitaire arrangement. Off by default. This one was a request from vladimir76 and FlameableAmber.
- Card readability overlay: an optional badge in the corner of each face-up card showing its rank and suit, making the older historical decks far easier to read at a glance.
- New setting to show your lifetime win count on the in-game UI. Thanks to lowpoly who asked for this.

Fixed
- Portuguese localisation reviewed and improved. Thanks to Bernardo Maurício (European Portuguese) and Victor Thienne Colombo (Brazilian Portuguese) for checking it over.
- Fixed a save-corruption issue that could occur if the game was closed while a hand was being dealt, plus related stability hardening around card animations.
- On PC the 2026 Steam Controller no longer shows the Steam Deck graphic on the Controls screen, it now displays the Steam Controller.
- Analogue stick navigation in menus is improved, the oversensitivity has been fixed.
- Fixed the Continue button sometimes missing from the main menu when a game was still in progress.
Achievement Fixes
- Historian achievement no longer unlocks from modern decks, it now only counts genuinely historical ones.
- Speed Demon and Lightning Round now use actual play time with pauses excluded, so they match the time shown on the win screen.
- Lightning Round's time limit has been adjusted so it's fairly reachable in normal play.
- Fashion Forward now unlocks correctly.
- Rebalanced the flow streak behind In the Zone and Zen Flow State, streak now tracks meaningful moves only, and card flips no longer pad it.
- Minimalist is now achievable. Its move target was previously impossible to reach and has been adjusted.
- Replaced the broken Same Seed achievement with: One Pass Only - Win Klondike without recycling the stock.
The DEMO build has also been updated to latest.
Thanks as always for the feedback in the discussions, keep it coming.
