The longest videogame marathon playing Solitaire Blitz (PopCap, 2012) lasted 30 hours exactly and was achieved by Laura Rich (UK) and Kathleen Henkel (USA), who played the casual card game simultaneously in London, UK, and New York, USA, respectively on 26–27 June 2012.
The transatlantic marathon saw Kathleen and Laura linked up via video connections between London and New York. More than $90,000 was raised for Charity: Water, a voluntary organization that aims to bring safe drinking water to developing countries.
As of August 2013, this is also the longest videogame marathon on a card game and the longest videogame marathon on a casual game.
