Klondike Solitaire Gameplay
- Pile up the cards in a sequence from Ace to King in order by suit over the foundation piles. Every foundation possesses an individual outfit.
- You can shift multiple cards at one go, provided the entire group you plan to move is in descending order and rotating color.
- You can only place the Kings and group in logical order having a king on the top on empty columns.
- Cards can be placed 1/ 3 at one time (reserve to waste). The top card can be played on the waste or towards foundations. You can rotate from waste & reserve continuously till your moves are over.
Tips
- Make sure you shift an Ace/Deuce card towards foundation as and when feasible. It automatically increases the chances of succeeding in the game.
- In case you are left with multiple options for moving your cards, you may want to pick the column with the largest count of cards unmasked.
- The perfect move is the move that offers the path for other steps. In case any move option that doesn’t tend to lead to another move then skips that move.
- You may not want to create one suit of Solitaire cards parallel to other cards present in the foundation. This can make it challenging to flip more Solitaire cards.
