Just wonder if any of you play this game? If so, what level?

Hooked on it, play intermediate level. Top level is just about impossible.

Same here! I do try to play level 3, just can't get it! Right now I'm running about a 72% win rate.

Yeah, intermediate is the only real option. A monkey couldn't loose the first level and I think top level is impossible as far as skill is concerned. I think level 3 would titerally require a rare shuffle to be winnable regaurdless off players skill. IMO

Nope, you are not alone, I play every day.
Was running a 9?% on intermediate level.
Decided to try advanced for a while.
Now I'm at 71%.

I play the game on the 'puter, not on line. If you play on your 'puter, then click on the statistics tab in the upper left corner.

What kind of computer are you on? If it has Windows, you probably have it on your computer, under games.

Yeah, I have Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 and they all come with the game.

The wife likes it too but we don't pay attention to stats, we prefer to play to win with the least amount of moves, like 120. We'll often replay each others lower score games so we talk trash when we beat each others score.
Of course it's all fun and games till someone gets hit with karate.
