Playing Solitaire


Solitaire is a classic card game that, as its name implies, you play by yourself. The object is to reveal all the cards that are turned face down and eventually to arrange all the cards in four piles, with each pile being a single suit stacked in ascending order from Ace through King.

Play Solitaire

Choose Solitaire from the Games folder of the Start menu.

Use the mouse to drag one card on top of another card. (The cards must be stacked in descending numeric order, alternating the red and black cards.)

Drag any Ace cards into the top row. If there are any other cards for that suit in the pile, stack them in ascending numeric order.

Move an entire series of cards onto a card to continue the series.

If you can't see a play, press the H key to see a suggested move.

If you can't make a play, click the stack to turn the cards over. Drag the top card on top of a face-up card if the top card has the correct number and suit.

If all the cards have been moved from a row, move a King, if one is available, and any cards that are stacked on it, into the empty spot.

Continue moving the cards until you've moved all the cards stacked by suit on top of the Aces.
