About Card & Puzzle
Card & Puzzle offers free solitaire and card games built by a developer with 25+ years of experience. Learn about our mission, studio, and what makes our games different.
Welcome to CardAndPuzzle.com — I’m Lemon Crate Nick, and I built this site because I wanted a place to play card games that looked good, felt smooth, and didn’t bombard you with pop-ups or require an account just to play a round of Solitaire.
My Background
I’ve been making games for over 25 years. I started back when mobile gaming meant tiny screens, painfully slow processors, and figuring out how to make something fun within extreme hardware limits. Over the years I’ve shipped games across every major mobile platform, watching the technology evolve from basic feature phones to the devices we carry today.
What I’m Building
Right now the site has eight solitaire games — Klondike, Spider, FreeCell, Pyramid, Golf, TriPeaks, Yukon, and Addiction 7. Each one has multiple difficulty modes, detailed strategy guides, and an XP system that tracks your progress across games.
I’m also working on multiplayer and non-solitaire card games. The goal is to build a complete card game destination — not just solitaire, but the classics people actually want to play.
How the Games Are Made
Every game runs directly in your browser using WebGL. There’s nothing to download or install. I build the games in Cocos Creator and optimize them to load fast and run smoothly on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops.
A few things I care about in every game I ship:
- Clean controls — Cards should move the way you expect them to. Drag, tap, or double-click — it all works.
- No account walls — You can play every game on the site without signing up for anything. Your progress saves automatically in your browser.
- Real features — Unlimited undos, optional hints, and the ability to switch difficulty modes at any time. No paywalls, no locked features.
- Themes — 23 visual themes you can unlock by playing. Light mode, dark mode, and everything in between.
Our Approach
I want Card & Puzzle to be the kind of site I’d want to use myself. That means fast load times, no clutter, and games that respect your time. If you have five minutes before a meeting or an hour on the couch, the experience should be equally good.

If you have a suggestion, a bug to report, or a game you’d like to see on the site, I’d genuinely like to hear from you. Reach out on the contact page or email me at contact@cardandpuzzle.com.
The Studio Behind the Games
I created Card & Puzzle as part of my company, Lemon Crate Studio LLC. This is where I bring all my game development ideas to life.
At Lemon Crate Studio, I just want to make games I'd want to play myself! Nothing beats working on something you actually enjoy, right? After all these years making games, I've found that when I genuinely enjoy the creative process, the result is a game that's just as fun to play as it was to build.
