Playing a hand

The game offers both Draw 1 and Draw 3 modes, changing how many cards are turned over from the stock at a time. As in Klondike, the aim is to sort the cards into foundation piles by suit and ascending order, moving cards between columns to uncover those you need. Hints can suggest a move, and undo lets you take back a choice. The game can also collect the remaining cards automatically once a hand is complete.

Settings and progress

Daily challenges provide a recurring game to try, while selectable themes change the table’s appearance. An unfinished hand is saved automatically, and records let you keep track of past play. The interface includes a left-handed option and can be viewed in portrait or landscape orientation; tablet support is included. These settings make it easier to fit a session to your screen and preferred way of handling cards, without changing the basic Klondike format.
