Introduction


OK, I know this Faerie Solitaire guide is so short that it doesn't even deserve an introduction or conclusion, but my "OCD-ness" requires that I include them because you are "supposed" to have them. That is how I was taught back in my one-room school house days. LOL.

If you can just pretend that the introduction and conclusion were beneficial to you even though you skipped right over them, then I will pretend that you rated this guide 5-stars.

So moving right along...

Aura Blast Quick Tip
Obviosuly a tip that is useful when dealing with the Aura Blast powerup requires that you have purchased that item. At 125,000 pure, it takes a while to save up for, but is an essential powerup for getting perfects.

Looking at the screen shot below, the King card was just flipped over from the deck, energizing the Aura Blast ability. Notice though that there are still 2 covered cards that could be anything, including Ace(s) and/or Queen(s).



The tip, that is easy to miss, is that you can undo the flip of the King card, presumming you have an undo left, without deactivating the Aura Blast. This in essence gives you another chance to potentially use that King card after you activate the Aura Blast. If one of the uncovered cards is an Ace or Queen you may have just turned a failed hand into a perfect hand.



Using this trick has resulted in several perfect hands that would have otherwise completed short by a card or two. This tip also saves you from having to play that precious wildcard to end as a perfect hand. Sometimes the best tips are the simplest and easiest to over look.

Conclusion
Yes, that's it. If you sneezed, then you missed the tip, so go back and read it again once you wipe your monitor off. I appreciate the fact that you took some time to glance at this guide. I hope it gave you a tip that will help you get at least another perfect or two as you play.

I have written several other guides, many of them actually fairly long, so if you need a guide to help you fall asleep, drop by my profile and check a few out. Just like you, I appreciate hearing from people if I did something good in this guide. And hopefully like you, I don't mind hearing if I did something less than expected, as long as you let me know in a polite way. Drop a comment below so I know how I'm doing or just to say "hello" to a fellow gamer. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Nice tip. Thanks. I'm at the end game grinding point, just looking for last few eggs. But, every little bit helps.

I often use undos in the same manner to reveal multiple hidden cards when having multiples on the board where only one will be playable. So, if there are 3 Kings that could play on my Ace, I flip each and undo just to reveal the covered card beneath, before flipping the others.

This works the same way with completing stacks. If you are not going to complete the perfect, an undo will allow you to check multiple stacks for the egg, if you had a choice of two stacks to complete, for example.
