Hi aggiemom,
Hoyle Bucks are frequent flier miles for gamers. When you accomplish certain feats while playing the Games, you automatically earn Hoyle Bucks. The more you play, the more you'll earn! Spend your bucks on new items offered in the catalog.
Your current Hoyle Bucks balance and any feats you've accomplished recently are shown in the Hoyle Bucks display in the lower-right corner of every game screen. Rolling over the display will show you the four most recent feats you accomplished in that game.
Accessing the Hoyle Bucks Area:
To spend your Hoyle Bucks, view your account ledger (for a complete list of the feats you've accomplished for this game), or learn which feats will earn Hoyle Bucks, go to the Hoyle Bucks area. There are three ways to get there: click on Hoyle Bucks from the Main Screen, select Hoyle Bucks from the Go To menu, or click on your current Hoyle Bucks balance on the Hoyle Bucks display in the game screen.
Navigating in the Hoyle Bucks Area:
When you first enter the Hoyle Bucks area, you are presented with a desktop with several items on it: the catalog, the guide, and your ledger. Click on any of these desktop items to use them, or navigate using the control bar at the bottom of the screen. Click on the picture below for information on that part of the control bar.
And, to use the items after you've purchased them from the Hoyle Bucks Catalog, click on Options at the bottom of the Screen, then select the Spacemaker option. The Spacemaker option will allow you to move the items you have purchased from the 'Items in Closet' box to the 'Items in Use' box.
OR, with some games, such as Solitaire, you can select some purchased Backgrounds and Cards AFTER you click on PLAY. To change those settings, be sure the game is in PLAY mode, click on Options at the bottom of the Screen, then select either Backgrounds or Cards in the menu that pops up.
