Frequently Asked Questions

How do I start a game of Klondike Solitaire?

Click or tap the stock pile (top-left) to draw a card to the waste pile. You can play the top waste card onto a tableau column or foundation. Build tableau columns in descending order with alternating red and black cards.

When can I move a card to the foundation?

Move an Ace to an empty foundation pile to start it. Then build each foundation up in the same suit from Ace to King. Only the top card of the waste pile or a single face-up tableau card can go directly to the foundation.

What happens when the stock pile runs out?

When the stock pile is empty, click it to recycle the waste pile back into the stock (with a small score penalty). You can cycle through the stock as many times as needed — the goal is to move all 52 cards to the foundations.
