01 — How to PlayFive steps to clearing the deck.
Klondike is you against the deck. Every card you free from the tableau brings you closer to the foundations.
Build the tableau down in alternating colours
Place a red 7 on a black 8, a black Queen on a red King. Cards stack down by one rank, red on black, black on red.
Move Aces to the foundations
Each foundation starts with an Ace and builds up by suit — Ace, 2, 3, all the way to King. Double-click a card to send it to its foundation automatically.
Free the face-down cards
When you move the top card off a column, the face-down card underneath flips over. Freeing hidden cards is the fastest way to open up the game.
Only Kings fill an empty column
When a column is cleared, only a King (or a sequence led by a King) may move into it. Never empty a column unless you have a King ready.
Clear all cards to win
When all four foundations hold a complete suit from Ace to King, you win. The timer stops and your time is saved as your best if it beats it.
02 — RulesThe rules this table plays by.
These are the exact rules the game above uses. No surprises, no fine print hidden in a menu.
| Rule | This table |
|---|---|
| Deck | One standard 52-card deck. Seven tableau columns hold 1 to 7 cards; the top card of each column starts face up. The other 24 cards form the stock. |
| Draw 1 vs Draw 3 | Draw 1 turns over one card at a time and is easier. Draw 3 turns over three and only the top one is playable — the classic harder game. Switch with the Draw button; it starts a new game. |
| Tableau builds | Down by one rank, alternating colours. Whole face-up sequences move together. Only a King (or a King-led sequence) may move into an empty column. |
| Foundations | Up by suit, Ace to King, one pile per suit. A card on a foundation can be moved back to the tableau if you need it there. |
| Stock and waste | Click the stock to draw. When the stock runs out, click it again to redeal the waste — you may redeal as many times as you like. |
| Undo | Unlimited. Undo steps back one move at a time, all the way to the start of the deal, including stock draws. |
| Winnable deals | Turn on Winnable Deal and every new game is dealt from a deck a solver has checked can be won. Random deals are usually winnable, but not always. |
| Winning | Move all 52 cards to the four foundations. Auto-Complete finishes a game for you when the solver finds a forced win from the current position. |
03 — TipsFive habits that win more games.
Every move that flips a hidden card gives you a new card to play with. A move that only shuffles face-up cards around can usually wait.
An empty column is only useful if a King can move into it. Clearing a column with no King waiting just strands the cards below it.
Moving a card to a foundation feels like progress, but a 5 you might need on a 6 in the tableau is more useful there. If in doubt, wait — you can always move it up later.
Aces and 2s never help in the tableau, so send them to the foundations immediately. For 3s and above, think before you move them up.
Solitaire rewards trying a line and backing out. Undo a few moves, try the other branch, and you will learn which plays open the game up.
04 — FAQQuestions, answered first.

What is Klondike Solitaire?
Klondike is the classic version of Solitaire most people know: a 52-card deck dealt into 7 tableau columns, 4 foundation piles built up by suit from Ace to King, and a stock you draw from. Clear all the cards into the foundations to win.
Should I play Draw 1 or Draw 3?
Draw 1 is easier and better for learning: you see every card in the stock, one at a time. Draw 3 is the classic harder game — only the top card of each three is playable. You can switch between them before a new game.
Can I undo a move?
Yes, undo is unlimited. Press Undo (or U) to step back one move at a time, all the way to the start of the deal, including stock draws.
Are all Solitaire deals winnable?
No. With random deals, most are winnable but some are not — estimates are around 80 to 90 percent for Draw 1. If you want a guaranteed winnable game, turn on the Winnable Deal option before starting a new game.
How do I win a game of Solitaire?
Move every card to the four foundation piles, one pile per suit, in order from Ace up to King. When all four foundations are complete, you win.
What should I do when I get stuck?
First press Hint — it points out a legal move you may have missed. If the stock is empty, click it to redeal the waste. Undo freely to try a different line, or start a new game. Turning on Winnable Deal gives you a deal that can always be won.
