Klondike Solitaire: instructions and practice
Bring your attention to one round of Klondike Solitaire. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Read the objective before making your first input. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.
One deck; draw-one or draw-three stock; waste recycling. Free solo play, no wagering.
An idea for your next attempt
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Use the example to check your reasoning.
The objective of a round
Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
The playing sequence
- Build down in alternating colours; kings fill empty columns. Valid ordered runs move together.
- 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.
Choosing and moving on screen
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
See the idea in action
A red 6 fits a black 7, not another red 7. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Verify the rule before continuing.
A common point of confusion
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
