Example-led learning
Read the worked example, identify its key decision, then look for a comparable decision while you play.
Your goal
Build four suit foundations from ace to king.
Step by step
- Build down in alternating colours; four cells each hold one card. Empty columns accept any legal group.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
Controls
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown.
A useful example
With two empty cells and no spare empty column, a group of at most three cards can move together.
Watch out for this
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy.
