Getting started with Klondike Solitaire

Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Klondike Solitaire. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Look at what changes after your first action. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.

One deck; draw-one or draw-three stock; waste recycling. Free solo play, no wagering.

An idea for your next attempt

After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Your goal

Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Notice how the game responds to your input.

Work through the instructions

  1. Build down in alternating colours; kings fill empty columns. Valid ordered runs move together.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

How to interact with the game

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Check any mode label before starting.

One way to understand the rules

A red 6 fits a black 7, not another red 7. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Verify the rule before continuing.

Check this before moving on

Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Compare the situation with the worked example. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
