Play Solitaire Online

Play Solitaire (Klondike) free in your browser -- no download, no sign-up needed. This classic card game is the perfect way to unwind while keeping your mind sharp. Drag and drop cards across the tableau, build foundation piles, and try to clear the board.

Klondike Solitaire is the most popular single-player card game in the world. Using a standard 52-card deck, your goal is to move all cards to the four foundation piles, sorted by suit from Ace to King. With a mix of strategy and luck, every deal presents a fresh puzzle to solve.

How to Play

1. Cards are dealt into seven tableau columns, with the top card of each column face-up.
2. Draw cards from the stock pile by clicking it. Drawn cards go to the waste pile.
3. Move face-up cards between tableau columns in descending order and alternating colors (e.g., black 6 on red 7).
4. When you reveal a face-down card, it flips automatically.
5. Build the four foundation piles by suit, starting with the Ace and ending with the King.
6. Win the game when all 52 cards are moved to the foundations.

Rules

• Tableau columns are built downward in alternating colors (red on black, black on red).
• Only a King (or a stack starting with a King) can be placed in an empty tableau column.
• Foundation piles are built upward by suit: Ace, 2, 3, ... King.
• You may draw one or three cards from the stock, depending on the game mode.
• The undo button lets you reverse your last move if you make a mistake.
• You can move partial or full stacks between tableau columns as long as the sequence is valid.

Tips & Strategy

• Uncover face-down cards first. Prioritize moves that flip hidden cards, as they open up new options.
• Don't rush cards to the foundation. Sometimes keeping a card in the tableau gives you more flexibility for future moves.
• Empty columns are powerful. Use them strategically to rearrange sequences and free up buried cards.
• Think several moves ahead. Before moving a card, consider whether it helps or blocks your next steps.
