Read before your next round of Klondike Solitaire
Begin with the objective. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Take the next action only when the current step is clear. Use the rule sheet as a reference. Build down in alternating colours; kings fill empty columns. Valid ordered runs move together. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
One deck; draw-one or draw-three stock; waste recycling. Free solo play, no wagering.
Practice with a purpose
Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

Making your moves
- Build down in alternating colours; kings fill empty columns. Valid ordered runs move together.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Move exposed cards onto suit foundations in the stated rank order.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
Keyboard and screen controls
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.
One way to understand the rules
A red 6 fits a black 7, not another red 7. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
One detail worth checking
A clear plan starts with the current position. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Use another round to revisit a decision.
