Solitaire

Klondike Solitaire is the classic single-player card game: the same one you remember from Windows, just with a new deal every day.

Build the columns down in rank, alternating red and black cards.

Move every suit to the foundations, from Ace up to King.

The cards

Solitaire is played with a full, standard 52-card deck. The deck has four suits of 13 cards each. Two suits are red (hearts and diamonds) and two are black (clubs and spades):

♥hearts
♦diamonds
♣clubs
♠spades

Cards rank from lowest to highest: A, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, J, Q, K.

The goal

The goal is to move all the cards onto the four foundation piles. Each foundation holds one suit, built up in order from Ace to King. When all four foundations are complete, you win.

The layout

Foundations — four empty spaces at the top, one for each suit. This is where every card ends up by the end of the game.
Columns (tableau) — seven columns that make up the main playing area. This is where you make most of your moves and turn over face-down cards.
Stock — the face-down cards you draw from when you run out of moves on the board.
Waste — cards drawn from the stock, turned face up. Only the top card can be played.

Key rules

Build the foundations up, in ascending order.

Each foundation holds cards of only one suit.

A card has to be face up before you can move it.

In the columns, alternate red and black cards.

In the columns, build down: onto a card one rank higher.

Cards from the waste can go to the foundations or the columns.

You can move cards from the columns to the foundations or to other columns.

You can move cards from the foundations back to the columns.

Cards cannot be put back on the stock.

Only a King can go into an empty column.

You can move whole runs of face-up cards between columns.

Tips

Turn over the face-down cards in the columns as early as you can. They open up new moves.
Don’t rush cards onto the foundations; they are often still useful in the columns.
Try to empty columns to make room for a King and for moving longer runs.
Plan a few moves ahead before you draw a new card.
