The lowest price: 22.45$
You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Pros:
All the classic games we're used to plus loads of new ways to play solitaire
Cons:
Only good to pass time, not something you'd open your PC for just to play it. It eventually gets tiresome and boring after a while.
Review:

I initially found this game pretty hard to play, primarily because there are a lot of new ways to play solitaire in it, which is a good thing since it adds variety and all. But what I didn't like is that all of the rules of all the games are available on one page only - it would have been better if each game came with its own rules, instead of compiling everything into one help file.

Since I'm also used to playing solitaire the traditional way wherein I could take my time and play at my pace, I found the time factor quite mind-boggling. For me, it took out the tranquil quality of the game.

For $22.45, you can certainly count me out from buying this game. I'm not paying that much for a game wherein all I do is repeatedly click the mouse, and that's all the interaction you can get from the game.

Conclusion:

I'd recommend this game to those who are and have been playing Solitaire with Windows. Like the solitaire in Windows, this game is good to pass time, relax and unwind. But it's not something you'll look forward to playing every single day.
