A short learning break
Choose one objective for this visit: understand the controls, complete a round, or recognise a common mistake. Progress does not need to be rushed.
Your goal
Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs.
Step by step
- Move a face-up card with its tail onto the next higher same-suit rank. Kings fill empty columns.
- 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
The trailing cards may be unordered, but the destination suit and rank must match.
Watch out for this
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy.
