Play Chess Titans, FreeCell, Solitaire, Mahjong in Windows 10 [Windows 7 Games]

The Games pack bundled with Windows Vista and Windows 7 included some some nice piece of software like Chess Titans, Mahjong Titans and Purble Place and some card games. Microsoft decided not to include the Games pack in Windows 10, as it now offers Modern or UWP version of some of those games from the Windows Store, which are ads supported.

If you’re an ardent fan of the classic Windows Vista/7 Games Explorer pack, you can download them from the links below and play them in Windows 10.

Note that each .zip file includes a custom built version of the software licensing verification file “slc.dll” (via MyDigitalLife forum members), and a patched version of “CardGames.dll” for card games like Solitaire, FreeCell etc. so that these games can run fine on Windows 10 systems.

  2. I do not like the design of playing card used in many of these games. I enjoyed the more conventional design (in UK at least) used in Windows XP. Since then I have successfully carried Freecell, Hearts Solitaire and Spider over through Vista 7 8 and 10. Just need to remember to transfer the cards.dll file as well as the file for each game.
