Want to learn to play Solitaire? Follow this guide.

Step 1  

To play this you must put the cards in order of number and red and black. For example if it says 10 black of spades then you need a red of hearts 9 or any other suit but has to be red and an 9.

Step 2  

Start building above the layout. After doing so you will see 4 spaces at the top. This is where your cards will go. This games, it starts from A and gradually goes up to K (King).

Step 3  

Each slot is for a suit and you have to find the first card which is the A and then go to 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,J,Q,K with each suit.

 

Step 4  

If you run out of places to go/combination of cards, you can search for cards in the deck by turning over three cards and use them too. Most of the time, there is a A in there so look there first!

Step 5  

If you have a card that's under the deck, you can move cards around and find places that you can hold and grab that card and take it to the slot.

 

Tips

  • Always start with the deck if you don't have any A in your hand of cards.
  • In the Deck there is 3 cards each click and you have to start with the 1st one to the right so remember that.
  • If there is an empty column, only Kings can go there/start first.
  • If you need help or want a hint, just press the H key.
  • Try not to get annoyed or irritated. It is just a game and with a little practice and a little luck you can complete it.
  • There are more forms of Solitare such as suits and four aces. If you are having trouble with this one or just not getting into it, try one of these.
  • Remember that to win Solitaire a certain amount of luck is involved. If you don't win first time just have another go.

Warnings

  • It is possible you can get a dead end, but the way to do this is undo your move and try to see what your mistake was. (CTRL+Z)
