Something to practise
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Make the next step deliberately.
Understand the aim
Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. The example below illustrates a decision.
Follow these playing steps
- Move any face-up card and its tail onto the next higher rank of the same suit. Kings fill empty columns.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
The controls to know
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Check any mode label before starting.
One way to understand the rules
A heart 6 fits a heart 7, not a spade 7. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Notice the change in the playing area.
A common point of confusion
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
