The dev was like:

I've spent months learning to write physics for a gamedev project and they assign me to Solitaire?! I learned physics and they are gonna get physics.

I really liked the spooky castle

I feel like I remember reading that was the case somewhere, but don’t quote me on it

Same, afaik it was a case of not rendering correctly and in all versions since they just went with it. Cant find a source though...

Oh yes. Integrated with Xbox account, levels, achievements, daily challenges, ads, collectibles , badges and a subscription to remove the ads. It perfectly represents everything that's wrong with modern software.
