Rules before speed
Work slowly for one round. Explain the rule behind each choice before trying to improve your score or completion time.
Your goal
Build four suit foundations from ace to king.
Step by step
- Build down in alternating colours; kings fill empty columns. Valid ordered runs move together.
- 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
A red 6 fits a black 7, not another red 7.
Watch out for this
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy.
