Your goal
Build eight suit foundations from ace to king.
Step by step
- Move one card at a time; build down in the same suit. Empty columns accept one card.
- 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 club 5 can move onto a club 6, but a whole run cannot move together.
Watch out for this
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy.
