How to play

Klondike is the world's most famous solitaire. Cards are dealt into 7 cascading columns, with the last card of each column face up. The goal is to free every card by moving it to the 4 foundations, in ascending order by suit, from Ace to King.

In the tableau you can build descending sequences alternating colors (red on black, black on red). Only a King can fill an empty column. Draw from the stock when you're out of moves: in Draw 1 mode you draw one card at a time, in Draw 3 you draw three but only the top one is playable.

Frequently asked questions

How do you play Klondike?

The 52 cards are dealt into 7 columns (tableau): the first column has 1 face-up card, the seventh has 7, with the last card of each column turned face up. The remaining cards form the stock. The goal is to move every card to the 4 foundations in ascending order by suit, Ace to King, while building descending alternating-color sequences in the tableau.

How do cards move in the tableau?

A card or an already-ordered sequence (alternating color, descending value) can move to another column only if the destination card is ranked 1 higher and the opposite color. Only a King can move to an empty column.

What's the difference between draw 1 and draw 3?

In draw 1 you draw one card at a time from the stock, making the game easier. In draw 3 you draw three at a time but only the top one is playable, which makes the game harder and more strategic.
