FAQ

Get familiar with FAQ before your next visit. Keep this page in mind if you need to return to the information.

What is the goal of the game?

Here is what to know. Collect eight complete same-suit sequences from King down to Ace. Clearing all eight sequences accounts for the full deck of 104 cards. Each qualifying sequence contains thirteen face-up cards. The game removes a completed sequence automatically from the bottom of a column.

What makes a sequence movable?

Here is what to know. A single exposed card can land on a card one rank higher regardless of suit. Try selecting a shorter matching segment from the bottom of the column. A group must be face up, descending by one rank at a time and entirely in one suit. A change in suit breaks the group even when the rank order is correct.

Do empty columns prevent a deal?

The key details are straightforward. Every tableau column must contain at least one card before a stock deal. A stock deal adds exactly one face-up card to each of the ten columns. Move a card or legal sequence into each empty column to meet that requirement. The stock button cannot deal after all five stock rows have been used.

Can I put any card in an empty column?

On this website, the following points apply. A King needs an empty column because it cannot land on another rank. Empty columns must be filled before the next stock deal. An empty column accepts any exposed card or movable same-suit sequence. Kings are allowed but are not required.

Does the game save my progress?

Each difficulty has its own saved game. With saving enabled, progress is stored in this browser on this domain. The Privacy & Cookie Settings page lets you manage local saving. Clearing browser storage, using a different device or turning saving off can remove access to that progress.

What do Undo and Replay do?

Here is what to know. Up to 200 recent action snapshots are retained when storage permits. Replay restarts the same shuffled deal from its opening position. Undo reverses a recent successful move or stock deal, including automatic flips and collections. New game creates a different shuffle and replaces the current deal for that difficulty.

Can every random deal be won?

Hints do not inspect hidden cards to provide a complete solution. The game uses random shuffles and does not promise that every deal is winnable. Hint suggests a legal move from the visible position. Undo or Replay can help you explore a different approach when progress stalls.

Are touch controls available?

Rotating your phone may give you a wider view of all ten columns. Tap a movable card or the first card of a matching descending group, then tap a destination column. Dragging is also supported on the card table. The mobile menu opens from the menu icon at the top of the page.
