Trying to get through anniversary badges

I don't disagree that playing life-limited games for badges can be frustrating. I will also admit that I use the free version of Pogo only, so I do not have this badge. However, I do play Solitaire Home Story and would ask if you are progressing the story/unlocking various items? You do this on the main screen by clicking the button in the bottom left corner; it looks like a menu. Completing different areas gives you prizes, including unlimited plays for x number of minutes sometimes. Additionally, you can get these gift boxes by doing the daily chores, which also show up under this menu. Gaining these perks and spinning the wheel daily should prevent you from running out of energy faster.
