A guide to your next move.
Start with a difficulty
Keep these details in mind. Changing difficulty opens that mode's own saved game when local saving is enabled. Every difficulty uses 104 cards and the same ten-column layout. Choose Play Spider for one suit, 2 Suits for spades and hearts, or 4 Suits for all four suits. One suit removes mixed-suit complications while you learn the controls.
Tableau and stock
Here is what to know. The stock holds fifty cards for five later deals of ten. Six cards are dealt to each of the first four columns and five to each remaining column. Only the bottom card of each starting column is face up. The tableau begins with 54 cards in ten columns.
Make a single-card move
Keep these details in mind. A nine can move onto a ten, and a Jack can move onto a Queen. Suit does not restrict a single card's destination when the ranks fit. An empty column accepts any exposed card, including a King or Ace. Choose an exposed card and place it on an exposed card one rank higher.
Move several cards
Here is what to know. A shorter valid segment at the bottom may still be moved separately. Cards move together only when they are face up, in one suit and descending by single ranks. Select the highest card of the group you want to move. A break in suit or rank means the entire selected group cannot move as a unit.
Expose a hidden card
The key details are straightforward. Undoing the move restores the previous face-down state when appropriate. You do not need a separate flip action. The newly revealed card may provide a useful destination or a new group to build. Moving every face-up card away from a hidden card reveals that hidden card automatically.
Use empty columns
Here is what to know. Fill all empty columns before dealing a new row from the stock. Any movable sequence can be placed into an empty column. Empty columns are useful for separating mixed suits and making hidden cards accessible. A King cannot land on another card, so it needs an empty destination.
Deal another row
Keep these details in mind. A deal is refused if any column is empty. Activate the stock button to add one face-up card to every column. Undo can restore the tableau and stock to their state before that deal. A successful stock deal counts as one move in this game's counter.
Finish a sequence
Arrange thirteen face-up cards of one suit from King down to Ace at the bottom of a column. Collect eight qualifying sequences to win. The game automatically removes that complete sequence. A mixed-suit sequence does not qualify even if every rank is present in descending order.
Tap, drag or use a keyboard
On this website, the following points apply. Keyboard users can focus face-up cards and activate them with Enter or Space. Click or tap a movable card and then a destination column, or drag the selection directly. The menu, stock and game controls also work with normal keyboard focus. Left and right arrow keys move focus between columns, and Escape clears a selection.
Choose the next step
On this website, the following points apply. The Hint feature suggests a legal option without guaranteeing that the deal can be won. Undo reverses recent successful actions while the stored undo history is available. Replay starts the current shuffle again, while New game creates a fresh shuffle. Saving is local to this browser and difficulty, and can be disabled in Privacy & Cookie Settings.
