One thing to notice as you play
Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.
What counts as success
Build eight suit foundations from ace to king. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Follow these playing steps
- 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. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Check any mode label before starting.
One way to understand the rules
A club 5 can move onto a club 6, but a whole run cannot move together. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Keep the game’s format in mind.
A common point of confusion
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
