Practice beyond the first move

A clear plan starts with the current position. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Use another round to revisit a decision.

The purpose of your moves

Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Use another round to revisit a decision. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.

Work through the instructions

  1. Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Move exposed cards onto suit foundations in the stated rank order.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

How your actions work

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Work at your own pace.

An example to follow

A red 6 carrying an unordered tail can move onto a black 7. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.

Watch out for this

For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
