The FreeCell playbook
Work at your own pace. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Keep the active rule in mind. Build down in alternating colours; four cells each hold one card. Empty columns accept any legal group. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
One face-up deck. Transfer capacity counts available cells and spare empty columns. Free solo play, no wagering.
Try a more deliberate round
Look at the complete hand before deciding. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
What counts as success
Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Begin with the objective.
The playing sequence
- Build down in alternating colours; four cells each hold one card. Empty columns accept any legal group.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Move exposed cards onto suit foundations in the stated rank order.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
How to use the controls
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Before making a move, check the cards in view.
Follow the example
With two empty cells and no spare empty column, a group of at most three cards can move together. Use another round to revisit a decision.
An important reminder
A clear plan starts with the current position. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
