The lowest price: 22.45$
You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Pros:
Multiple features avid Solitaire players have come to love and expect. 65 different games that will keep you locked into the Solitaire Action.
Cons:
Exit button was a little confusing. Design could be a bit more updated. I find the price of $24.95 to be a bit much.
Review:

My first impression of Action Solitaire was that it looked a bit old school. I am used to things that are more flashy and up to date.

However once I dived into all the features I was pretty impressed. With 65 different versions of Solitaire games Action Solitaire has a lot to offer. It has special features that I have not seen with other Solitaire games such as adjusting the card size from tiny all the way to huge. I find this would be beneficial to someone with poor visibility or someone who is trying to sneak in a little game at work and not be noticed.

One of the biggest things that I enjoy about playing a Solitaire game is my ability to customize my cards, background, and general playing experience. Action Solitaire has 16 different card designs to choose from and options to download different card sets. You can also change the background color. Statistics I find are also very important to Solitaire players. We like being able to document our scores and improve them. With Action Solitaire you can do just that and so much more.

The only negative I really had with this software came when it was time to try a different game. I wasn't really sure how to get back to the main menu and I was worried the only Exit button would completely close out the game. I was brave though and clicked the little exit door which took me right back to the main screen. It would be nice if they changed it from exit to "exit to main screen", or just "main screen."

Conclusion:

Overall I think Action Solitaire would have me hooked. I enjoy the statistic features it has and would recommend this to a hardcore Solitaire player.
