What the app does

  • Single-deck Simple Simon: 52 cards, all visible, 10 columns, no stock, 4 runs to remove.
  • Three levels: 1 suit (“Easy”), 2 suits (“Medium”), 4 suits (“Hard”), chosen at the start of a new game.
  • Game code: each deal has a code (for example, SS1-S1-AAAAABD) that you can copy, paste or enter to replay the same deal or offer it to someone else. The shuffle is calculated on the device, with no account required.
  • Touch controls: double-tap to move to the best column, drag and drop, highlighted legal destination columns, a rule reminder after a rejected move, pinch to zoom.
  • Undo the last 100 actions; pause by tapping the timer.
  • Statistics (games played, time, streaks) and a ranking of the 10 best results.
  • Appearance: 4 playing surfaces (sage green, slate blue, plum, sand), light or dark theme; no choice of card backs, since no cards are ever hidden; 36 languages.
