After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Refer to the controls when needed.
Your goal
Build eight suit foundations from ace to king. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Check the rules when you are unsure.
A walkthrough of the rules
- Move one card at a time; build down in the same suit. Empty columns accept one card.
- 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.
Keyboard and screen controls
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Use the control method described here for this activity. A new-round button replaces the current round.
See how the rules apply
A club 5 can move onto a club 6, but a whole run cannot move together. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Take a moment to compare.
A mistake to avoid
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
