How to play Solitaire
Move all 52 cards to the four foundations, building each suit from Ace through King. In the seven tableau columns, build downward in alternating red and black colors. A face-up run can move together, and only a King can fill an empty column. Turn over the stock to reveal more cards, and uncover face-down tableau cards to open new moves. Some shuffled deals cannot be won.
Choose your difficulty
| Level | What changes |
|---|---|
| Easy | Draw one card from the stock; recycle the waste without a limit. |
| Medium | Draw three cards at a time; recycle the waste without a limit. |
| Hard | Draw three cards at a time, with at most two recycles after the first pass. |
Controls
Select a face-up card or run, then select its destination column or foundation. Select the stock to draw cards. Use Undo to reverse a move, draw or recycle. Tab and Enter work with the card buttons.
A tip for your first round
Look for moves that uncover a face-down card. Before filling an empty column with a King, consider which hidden cards the move could help expose.

Solitaire questions
Which Solitaire variant is this?
This is Klondike: seven tableau columns, four suit foundations and one stock pile.
Can I undo a move?
Yes. Undo reverses the most recent move, stock draw or waste recycle.
Is every deal winnable?
No. Deals are shuffled rather than selected from a set of guaranteed winning games.
