Related, Oscar Toledo also made a tiny Klondike Solitaire program for IOCCC, I wonder if it was inspired by this one:

Hey very nice! I made a 386+VGA Solitaire game a while back for a game jam https://horsedrawngames.itch.io/solitaire I always meant to go back and optimise it more because it shouldn’t require a Pentium!

Late (late.sh) has solitaire available to play over SSH (along with minesweeper, tetris, battleships, chess... and many more). You'd be surprised at how well a lot of games translate just fine to being rendered on a simple interface.

Solitiny :)

> NOTE: For DosBox users, DosBox doesn’t seem to support AT&T 6300 but the other modes work fine.

I'm pretty sure DOSBox supports the Olivetti M24 graphics mode.

Works for me in DOSBox-X atleast.

That gas-plasma display looks gorgeous, it looks more "analogue" than lcd to me. Are these still produced or is this "dead" technology?

Nice, though being a peasant at solitaire i wish it had an option to deal 1 card at a time.

Very nice. How about site where we can play it in the browser? There are several wasm dos simulators..
