I really like this game!

well, I'm NOT going back to look!!! I must have wasted at least two hours over the weekend on the solitaire version - what drove me crazy was that because it wouldn't always "unlock" keys (I couldn't find out the logic for what it decided to shade light, clickable, or leave dark, unclickable) then I would run out of pairs (this despite getting that you had to attack the bigger piles to keep a spread of options) and then be sent all the way back through the levels to Level 1 again (great disparity of level within the levels, too, methought).
WHAT AM I SAYING!! That it has come to this, addicted to an internet game, the shame! Thanks, guys. Not!

oh but you can! I'm quite the master now, have done it another 5 times but still horribly addicted!
What you must ensure (says wisely) is that you keep your options wide, so you want to attack the big pile in the middle and reduce the mass of tiles, not eat into the sides. This ensures that the maximum number of tiles are kept "live" as it were. Not all games will work and there's a lot of aggravation, but where I've been successful (and I do have a life as well, honest) is where I've kept a little eye on options - sometimes there are, say, 3 Ws so I have a quick check as to which open up the best other tiles. Also, it took me a while to realise, d'oh, that all the flowery/firey ones "go" with each other, and all the old people. Off I go for one quick final fumble!
