About this game
Solitaire. Free original browser game. No download or account required—open and play.
Move all 52 cards to four foundations, building each suit from ace through king.
How to play
Build tableau columns downward in alternating colors, reveal covered cards, and use the stock only when the tableau cannot expose a better move.
- Reveal a face-down card whenever a legal move makes that possible.
- Move aces and safe low cards to their matching foundations.
- Use empty columns for kings or king-led sequences, then complete all four foundations.
Rules and tips
Move all 52 cards to four foundations, building each suit from ace through king.
Practical strategy
- Prefer moves that reveal hidden cards over moves that only rearrange visible cards.
- Keep useful landing places for both red and black sequences.
- Delay a foundation move when that card may still be needed in the tableau.
Common mistakes
- Emptying a column without a king ready to use it.
- Cycling the stock without planning which card must become accessible next.
- Sending every low card to the foundations too early.
