Eric's Ultimate Solitaire (also known as Eric's Ultimate Solitaire X) is a commercial solitaire game developed by Delta Tao Software for the Macintosh. The game was later ported to Linux by Loki Software.[1]
The full game includes seventeen versions of solitaire, a number chosen because of the maximum number of items that could be shown in the menu of a Mac Plus without scrolling.[2]
The game includes an undocumented feature where it displays messages on certain days, such as Martin Luther King, Jr.'s, birthday.[2]
Development
Apple Computer bundled the game with some Macintosh systems.[3][4]
As of January 4, 2012, Delta Tao Software had not released an update compatible with Apple's Mac OS 10.7 (Lion) operating system.[5] As of November 21, 2013, Sniderware released Eric's All-in-1 Solitaire as its successor.
