Eric Snider, best-known for his award-winning game "Eric's Ultimate Solitaire(TM)" for the Macintosh, has made the leap to the mobile games market with "Eric Snider's Solitaire(TM)" for Palm OS

San Jose, CA July 1, 2004 -- "Eric Snider's Solitaire(TM)" for Palm OS(R) is the first game release for Sniderware, an emerging player in the mobile game software market. The company's founder, Eric Snider, is a veteran in the gaming world. A game developer since 1991, Eric is the author of the famous "Eric's Ultimate Solitaire(TM)," the original solitaire game bundled with every Apple Macintosh(R), which is also available for Windows. Fanatic about games and technology, Eric is now focused on developing fun and engaging games for the mobile user.

"There are plenty of Solitaire packages out there for Palm OS devices, some of them freeware, but none of them come close to the impressive graphics, smooth gameplay, and simple yet creative features," said Jen Edwards, founder and Editor-in-Chief of PocketGoddess.com. "I'm very impressed with Eric Snider's Solitaire and can't wait to see the next update."

Ranked 5 out of 5 stars by Handango and PalmGear users, "Eric Snider's Solitaire(TM)" offers all the key ingredients of a classic game in a mobile format. The game features 10 solitaire variations, high resolution graphics, subtle sound effects, and detailed statistics.

Eric Snider, lead game developer, said "The game was designed with the player in mind. It's very entertaining and addictive, and features all the elements of a challenging game for hard-core solitaire fans. But it remains simple, intuitive and approachable for new players. Users can learn to play any of the game's 10 solitaire variations with the built-in help and hints. The game's interface is very engaging and fun because it allows players to shove the cards with the stylus and watch them fly into place."
