Hey there!
So, you’ve seen the Solitaire Mind Challenge advert, right?
The one that piqued your interest with that bold claim: “If you’re making less than $6,000, then this is the game”?
Yeah, it got me wondering, too!
How does this game work, and how do the developers make a profit?
Let’s dive in together.

Unraveling Holiday Solitaire Party
Have you heard about the Solitaire Mind Challenge?
Also known as Holiday Solitaire Party.
It’s a solitaire-based game where you can apparently rake in lots of virtual cash.
I know, I know.
There are heaps of these money-making solitaire games on the app store.
Promising $100, $200, and even a whopping $1000.
But here’s the catch.
Most of them, when it’s time to cash out? They fall short.
Just check out Solitaire Smash to give you one example.
To be honest, I can only recall one game from the last 50 that actually paid up.
And now, we’ve got Solitaire Mind Challenge in the mix.
How does this one stack up?
The Gameplay Mechanics
When you first launch Solitaire Mind Challenge, you’re greeted with a pop-up.
It’s all about “Crazy Cash” and how much PayPal money you need to cash out.
You’ve got 24 hours to earn your maximum bonus to withdraw.
Once that’s done, the screen unfolds just like any other solitaire game.
It has this cool “Under the Sea” theme and a short tutorial on playing.
Earning Money in Solitaire Mind Challenge
Here’s where it gets interesting.
As you shuffle those cards, virtual money starts flowing in.
I mean, after my first card move, boom! £29.26 was added to my PayPal balance on-screen.
Impressive, right?
But don’t get too excited.
The cash flow slows down a bit.
Several card moves later, I earned another £30.45.
All said and done, I had about £60 after roughly 3 minutes.
Not bad for “work”, if we can even call it that!
More Ways to Boost Your Virtual Balance
Solitaire isn’t the only way to earn here.
You can tap on PayPal and coin bubbles.
Then, there’s a game tab filled with mini-games to earn more virtual cash.
And yes, as you’ve guessed, there are darting PayPal icons.
Tap on them, and you could snag £20 to £30 each time.
Unlock themes and cards in the skin shop, and you’ll see PayPal cards pop up, too.
Cashing Out
Now, to the big question.
How do you get your hands on that virtual cash?
The current minimum threshold is £211.
Considering I nearly earned half that in 5 minutes, it seems easy enough.
To withdraw, punch in your account details in the ‘Crazy Cash’ section.
And yes, they pay via PayPal.
But here’s the catch.
Despite the flashy ads, does it really make sense?
Earning £30 for every move in the game sounds a tad unrealistic.
I mean, with 100,000 downloads, how are they paying everyone?
A Word of Caution
I’ve tried several solitaire games.
And, more often than not, they use the solitaire angle as a cover for their earning schemes.
They rope you in, urging you to play non-stop for 24 hours.
But when it’s pay-up time? They ghost.
So, always remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
