Play Klondike solitaire online with one-card or three-card draws. Build four foundations and use hints while working through a new deal.

How to play

Build descending columns in alternating colours and move cards to the foundations by suit, from ace to king. Reveal hidden cards by moving the cards above them. Only a king can start an empty column. Choose whether the stock deals one or three cards and configure how many stock redeals are allowed.

A useful starting tip

Give priority to moves that uncover face-down cards. Before emptying a column, check whether you have a king ready to use the space.

A familiar layout with changing information

Each newly revealed Klondike card can change the plan. You connect descending runs, uncover hidden cards and gradually send suits to the foundations. The stock creates another source of opportunities: its accessible top card may assist a rearrangement or need to wait. Watch columns, waste and the next required foundation rank together rather than treating them as separate games.

Draw one introduces access to stock cards directly. Draw three adds dependence on waste order because an appealing middle card cannot be selected independently of the top. The allowed number of passes is a separate setting worth checking before starting.

Find a move with a continuation

Compare transfers that reveal a card, make the waste playable or free room for an available king. An empty column cannot accept an arbitrary rank, so clearing it alone does not solve the task. Foundations require one suit ascending from ace, while columns alternate colours descending. Check these distinct conditions whenever a placement appears to be rejected unexpectedly.

Reveal before you decorate

Moving cards to the foundations feels productive, but exposing a face-down card or freeing a column often changes more. Compare the next few moves before sending a low card away. A legal move that reveals nothing may be safe, yet a move that opens information is usually the one that advances the deal.
