We've taken the classic game of Klondike Solitaire, and matched it with a beautiful new design. Go back in time with King, Queen and Jack as you play the ultimate card game. It's the same game of Solitaire you know and love, but just more beautiful. Never played Solitaire? The object of the game is to sort the cards by suit and rank from low (Ace) to high (King) into four stacks, by revealing all the cards. After the shuffle, seven piles of cards are laid out from left to right, with each sequential pile containing one more card than the pile before it. The top card of each pile is face-up with the remaining cards used as the dealing pile placed above the rest. The game starts when the first move is made. To make a move, the player selects a card from one of the seven piles or the dealing pile to create fanned stacks of cards of descending rank and alternating colors. The player can move full or partial groups of cards in order to access others ultimately completing the four stacks. Play the standard one-card or three-card draw. Stuck on a move? Use the hint button to show you the move, or click New Game to restart or deal a new hand.
