The story in "Fantasy Quest Solitaire" is minimal and often lacks coherence, serving primarily as a backdrop for the gameplay rather than a focal point. While some players appreciate the cute narrative and the variety of mini-games, many agree that the overall experience feels hollow without a substantial story. Ultimately, the game is more about the solitaire mechanics and puzzle-solving than a compelling narrative.
“The story starts with 'in our most recent adventure we helped the king', but this is the first solitaire in this game world; the previous titles were pure match-3 and they're not on Steam.”
“There is a brief story tucked away within the gameplay.”
“A great solitaire game, cute story & lots of puzzles to solve, also very nice graphics :)”
“There's not much of a story, and what little there is doesn't make any sense, but if you just want to play a little solitaire in a fairy-esque landscape, this game will do just fine.”
“The only thing it lacks is a decent story, without which the overall experience is rather hollow.”
“Like many games with a solitaire theme, there wasn’t much story to speak of but the main reason we play these types of games is to relax and be challenged.”
