Klondike Solitaire: what to know before playing
Klondike Solitaire gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Look at what changes after your first action. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Use the example below to understand a decision.
One deck; draw-one or draw-three stock; waste recycling. Free solo play, no wagering.
Build familiarity through play
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Keep the objective visible.
The challenge in front of you
Build four suit foundations from ace to king. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
The steps to play
- 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.
- Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
Your inputs
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. Look at the feedback after the action.
One way to understand the rules
A red 6 fits a black 7, not another red 7. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Consider the next action carefully.
Check this before moving on
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. 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.
