About this game

Core Objective

Your main task is to organize all cards on the board into eight complete sequences, each running from King down to Ace within the same suit. As you finish a sequence, it disappears from the table, reducing the number of cards you need to manage. The game ends when all eight sequences have been removed.

Moving Cards

You can move a single card or a stack of cards that are already in descending order and share the same suit. Place them onto an empty column or onto a card that is exactly one rank higher. For example, a 5 of spades can be placed on a 6 of spades. This rule keeps the game logical and forces you to think ahead.

Dealing New Cards

When no more moves are possible, click the stock pile in the top-left corner to deal one new card to each column. These fresh cards can open up new opportunities, but they also add complexity. Use them wisely to avoid blocking important cards deeper in the tableau.

Platform and Accessibility

The game works smoothly on both desktop and mobile browsers. On a computer, use mouse clicks to select and move cards. On a touchscreen, tap and drag cards to reposition them. A full-screen option is available for a more focused view. No downloads or account creation are required.

Strategic Tips

Focus on building sequences within the same suit to maximize efficiency. Empty columns are valuable for temporarily holding cards, so use them carefully. Take your time—there is no timer, and each move can be undone if needed. Regular practice helps you recognize patterns and plan several moves ahead.
