Whirlwind21

Whirlwind 21 is a clone of an online solitaire game based on Blackjack. The main goal of the game is to build cards up to 21 on any of 5 piles. Select the pile by moving the green triangle with up/down and pressing the action key to place a card on it. If you cannot place a card on any pile without exceeding 21, the game is over. If you get a card labelled X, the next pile you select will be automatically cleared. The card appears randomly, about once every 100 cards. The scoring system is as follows: Natural Blackjack: 2 Cards totaling 21 = 35 points Regular Blackjack: 3+ Cards totaling 21 = 21 points 5 Card Charlie: 5 Cards totaling under 21 = Value of the pile Clearing all piles: All piles are empty = 45 points Clearing the deck: Use all 52 cards = 60 points Using the X card: Clears a single pile = Value of the pile Strategy Hints: - Cards come from a single shuffled deck. When the deck is exhausted, a new shuffled deck replaces it (meaning it is possible to have more than 1 of the exact same card on the board). - Try to pair cards to make 11. For instance match a 2 with a 9. - Remember that there are 16 cards worth 10 in a deck, so they are much more likely to appear. Use Garmin Connect (instructions: https://forums.garmin.com/forum/developers/connect-iq/connect-iq-showcase/115055-how-to-app-settings) to choose these preferences: - Display pile totals: You can disable the pile totals from appearing at the bottom of each pile - Display numbers only: Instead of drawing cards, use text to represent a card (K for king, A for ace, etc.) This results in larger text. Your highest score is kept and can be shown in the menu. Use the menu at any point to start a new game. Your progress will be saved when you exit the app if a game is in progress. Note that if you use the Garmin Connect Mobile app to update, your settings (including your high score) will be lost. I hope to not update the app frequently as to avoid this.
