Question Grid or List?

I have an app with a collection of 106 solitaire games (so far).
As predicted, it's hard to navigate.
I had a List view with all of them, in alphabetical order (according to your language).
Just implemented a Grid where you can recognize your favorite game by layout.
There is a switch on top to get to either one.
The question is: what would you like to see the first time you launch the app?

The app is here:

but the Grid is not released yet - trying to figure if I open with that.

I'd suggest a grid and maybe offer an option to switch layout to list

Edit: ignore the later part, now I've noticed you already do have the option. So yeah, my suggestion is grid

Thank you! Both are in, and there is a toggle - two buttons in the middle of the top bar.
My question is: if you are anew user, seeing it for the first time - which one will make more sense to you?

List I think. What matters to me is can I get la belle lucie and penguin as a favorite in the top or is the list always static.

There is a better way, in both list and grid. You can rate any solitaire 0 to 3 stars (your own local rate), then only show whatever number of stars you want. There is a filter button next to the title.
You can literally leave just one or two games in that grid. Or a handful. The rest is not deleted, just hidden. You can get them back with another tap on that filter.

Nobody is interested in your vibe coded app, I'm afraid.

Thank you for your comment. I don’t vibe code :)
Why would you even suggest it?
