Solitaire Dash is Tapinator’s horse-racing themed tri-peaks solitaire mobile game which originally launched in 2017 and recently received a significant update for its 2.0 version. The user interface was completely redesigned in the form of a map to visually represent player progress. This redesign has resulted in a map featuring 324 unique levels across 18 racetracks. Players now have many additional ways to increase earning potential and in-game rewards, including purses for completing racetracks and “sponsorships” that are awarded for completing in-game content. In short, Solitaire Dash 2.0 now combines the proven systems of top grossing card games with its own unique features to create a best-in-class solitaire product. Tapinator’s CEO, Ilya Nikolayev, has personally created the vision and overseen the development of Solitaire Dash since the game’s inception.
