Freecell Solitaire

Intro

Welcome to the cerebral challenge of Freecell Solitaire, a classic card game where strategy and foresight are your greatest assets. Unlike other solitaire variants, every card is dealt face-up from the start, giving you all the information you need to conquer the puzzle. Your objective is to move all 52 cards from the tableau to the four foundation piles, building each suit up from Ace to King. The key to victory lies in the skillful and efficient use of the four "free cells" at the top of the board, which act as temporary holding spots. Nearly every deal is solvable, so every game is a winnable test of your logic!

How to control

The game is played entirely with a simple mouse click or a screen tap, designed for smooth and effortless play. To move a card, simply click on it to select it. Then, click on a valid destination to complete the move. Valid destinations include an empty free cell, another tableau pile (if the move is legal), or a foundation pile. This version features a smart-move logic: often, clicking a movable card will automatically send it to the most logical destination (like a foundation pile), which helps to speed up your gameplay and reduce unnecessary clicks.

Tips

• Plan Ahead: Since all cards are visible, take a moment at the start of the game to look at the layout and plan your first few moves. Identify which cards are blocking essential low-ranked cards and strategize how to free them.
• Keep Free Cells Open: Your free cells are your most valuable resource for maneuvering cards. Try to keep them empty as much as possible. A hand with three or four open free cells is far more flexible and powerful than one with none.
• Create Empty Columns: An empty tableau column is even more powerful than a free cell. It can hold an entire sequence of cards, not just a single one, which dramatically increases your ability to rearrange the board and solve difficult situations.
• Build on Foundations Early: Don't hesitate to move Aces and 2s to the foundation piles as soon as they become available. This clears up valuable space on the tableau and gets you closer to winning the game.
