What the game asks you to do
Remove all 35 tableau cards. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
A walkthrough of the rules
- Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping.
- Click an exposed card or eligible pair to remove it.
- Draw when useful.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
Getting comfortable with the controls
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. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
A useful example
Waste queen accepts jack or king. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Consider the next action carefully.
Keep this in mind
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
