MacPatience 2.01 by Niklas Frykholm is a classic Macintosh shareware solitaire collection bundling five distinct card games into a single application. It supports both color and black-and-white monitors and ships with sampled sound effects, a polished package for its mid-1990s release on Info-Mac.
Included games
The application offers five solitaire variants: Klondyke, Golf, Fan, Pyramide, and Hungarian Slammer. Each draws on the shared card-rendering and sound engine, giving players a small but varied rotation of patience styles within one window.
Presentation
MacPatience 2.01 is built for the era's mixed display landscape, rendering nicely on color monitors while degrading cleanly to black and white. Sampled sound accompanies card play, a notable touch when many shareware solitaire titles still relied on the system beep.
Shareware terms
The game is part of the Niklas Frykholm Shareware Package; a single $5 registration covers the whole bundle rather than each individual title. The author lists nisfrm95@student.umu.se and a personal page at ts.umu.se/~r2d2 for correspondence and updates.
