Pick a table
Here is what to know. Every difficulty uses 104 cards and the same ten-column layout. Choose Play Spider for one suit, 2 Suits for spades and hearts, or 4 Suits for all four suits. One suit removes mixed-suit complications while you learn the controls. Changing difficulty opens that mode's own saved game when local saving is enabled.
Tableau and stock
Keep these details in mind. The stock holds fifty cards for five later deals of ten. Six cards are dealt to each of the first four columns and five to each remaining column. Only the bottom card of each starting column is face up. The tableau begins with 54 cards in ten columns.
Place one rank lower
A nine can move onto a ten, and a Jack can move onto a Queen. An empty column accepts any exposed card, including a King or Ace. Choose an exposed card and place it on an exposed card one rank higher. Suit does not restrict a single card's destination when the ranks fit.
Select a legal sequence
Cards move together only when they are face up, in one suit and descending by single ranks. A break in suit or rank means the entire selected group cannot move as a unit. A shorter valid segment at the bottom may still be moved separately. Select the highest card of the group you want to move.
Turn the next card over
Keep these details in mind. Undoing the move restores the previous face-down state when appropriate. You do not need a separate flip action. The newly revealed card may provide a useful destination or a new group to build. Moving every face-up card away from a hidden card reveals that hidden card automatically.
Use empty columns
The key details are straightforward. Fill all empty columns before dealing a new row from the stock. Empty columns are useful for separating mixed suits and making hidden cards accessible. A King cannot land on another card, so it needs an empty destination. Any movable sequence can be placed into an empty column.
Use the stock button
The key details are straightforward. Activate the stock button to add one face-up card to every column. Undo can restore the tableau and stock to their state before that deal. A deal is refused if any column is empty. A successful stock deal counts as one move in this game's counter.
Clear King through Ace
Keep these details in mind. Arrange thirteen face-up cards of one suit from King down to Ace at the bottom of a column. The game automatically removes that complete sequence. Collect eight qualifying sequences to win. A mixed-suit sequence does not qualify even if every rank is present in descending order.
Tap, drag or use a keyboard
On this website, the following points apply. Click or tap a movable card and then a destination column, or drag the selection directly. Left and right arrow keys move focus between columns, and Escape clears a selection. Keyboard users can focus face-up cards and activate them with Enter or Space. The menu, stock and game controls also work with normal keyboard focus.
Continue or restart
The key details are straightforward. The Hint feature suggests a legal option without guaranteeing that the deal can be won. Replay starts the current shuffle again, while New game creates a fresh shuffle. Undo reverses recent successful actions while the stored undo history is available.
