Core Game Mechanics & The 5 Essential Classics

At the heart of Solitaire Collection are five distinct card games, each offering its own unique rules, strategic depth, and puzzle-solving flavor.

1. Klondike Solitaire (The Timeless Classic)

The undisputed king of solitaire. Your goal is to move a standard 52-card deck into four foundation piles sorted by suit in ascending order from Ace to King.

Tableau Setup: 7 columns where cards are stacked in descending order with alternating colors (Red King on Black Ace, etc.).
Stock & Waste: Draw 1 card or 3 cards at a time from the stock pile to uncover new moves.

2. Spider Solitaire (The Multi-Deck Mastermind)

A high-stakes, deeply strategic variation played with two full decks (104 cards). Your goal is to construct descending runs of cards of the same suit from King down to Ace within the tableau to clear them from the board.

Difficulty Tiers: Playable in 1-Suit (Easy/Beginner), 2-Suit (Medium), or 4-Suit (Expert) modes.
Tableau Challenge: Cards can be stacked in descending order regardless of suit, but only full single-suit sequences can be moved as a group!

3. FreeCell Solitaire (Pure Tactical Skill)

A open, highly analytical game where virtually every single dealt hand is solvable with the right strategy!

Open Information: All 52 cards are dealt face-up into 8 tableau columns from the very start.
The Free Cells: Utilize 4 open "free cells" as temporary holding spots for individual cards as you maneuver, organize tableau columns, and build four foundation piles from Ace to King.

4. Pyramid Solitaire (Math & Pair Matching)

A fast-paced, numerical puzzle game played on a triangular pyramid arrangement of 28 face-up cards.

Pair Matching: Remove pairs of exposed cards whose values add up to 13 (e.g., $10 + 3$, $9 + 4$, Jack + 2, Queen + 1).
Card Values: Kings are worth 13 on their own and are removed with a single tap; Queens are worth 12, Jacks 11, and Aces 1.

5. TriPeaks Solitaire (Casual Arcade Speed)

An addictive, fast-action solitaire style where you clear three overlapping card peaks by selecting exposed cards that sit one value higher or one value lower than the active card on your waste pile.

Sequence Chaining: Create long consecutive chains (e.g., $5 \rightarrow 6 \rightarrow 7 \rightarrow 6 \rightarrow 5 \rightarrow 4$) without drawing new stock cards to build massive point multipliers!

Comprehensive "How to Play" Instructions

How to Play Klondike

Objective: Build all 4 Foundation Piles at the top right from Ace to King, grouped strictly by suit (Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs, Spades).
Tableau Moves: Drag cards across the 7 tableau columns below. Cards must be placed in descending numerical order (King down to 2) and must alternate colors (Red on Black, Black on Red).
Empty Columns: Only a King (or a sequence starting with a King) can be moved into an empty tableau space.
Drawing from Stock: Tap the top-left Stock Pile to draw new cards into your Waste Pile whenever you run out of available moves on the board.

How to Play Spider

Objective: Assemble 8 complete 13-card suit sequences in descending order from King down to Ace within the tableau columns.
Building Sequences: Stack cards in descending order ($K, Q, J, 10...$). While you can place a Red 9 on a Black 10, you can only move entire groups of cards if they belong to the same suit.
Dealing Rows: When moves stall, tap the stock pile to deal 1 new card onto the bottom of every tableau column (note: all columns must contain at least 1 card before dealing).

How to Play FreeCell

Objective: Move all 52 cards to the 4 suit Foundations (Ace to King).
Utilizing Free Cells: Use the 4 Free Cells in the top-left corner to hold single blocking cards.
Super-Move Mechanics: The number of cards you can move at once depends directly on how many empty free cells and empty tableau columns you currently have available!

How to Play Pyramid & TriPeaks

Pyramid: Tap any two exposed cards that sum to 13 to clear them from the board. Clear the entire pyramid to win.
TriPeaks: Tap any exposed peak card that is 1 rank higher or lower than the face-up card on your bottom waste bin (e.g., if a 7 is shown, you can tap an 8 or a 6).

Pro Strategies & Card Tactics

Uncover Hidden Face-Down Cards First: In Klondike and Spider, always prioritize making moves that flip over face-down cards in the longest tableau columns over drawing new cards from the stock.
Protect Your Free Cells: In FreeCell, treat your 4 upper cells like gold. Filling all 4 free cells prematurely destroys your mobility and severely limits the length of card sequences you can move.
Expose Aces and 2s Early: Always move Aces and 2s to the foundation piles immediately—they hold no utility for building descending sequences on the lower tableau.
Keep Suit Sequences Uniform in Spider: Even though you can stack mismatched suits in Spider, try your absolute best to keep runs within the same suit whenever possible so you can move them easily later.
Plan Ahead in TriPeaks: Look for branching card chains before making your first tap. Choose the direction that opens up the highest number of covered peak cards.
