about classic solitaire

Classic Solitaire is possibly the most popular solitaire game ever. It also goes by the names "Klondike" and even just "Solitaire".

objective

In Classic, your goal is to move all cards to the 4 foundation piles (the card piles in the top right).

foundations

Cards here are organized by suit, and in ascending order: Ace, 2, … Queen, King. When all cards are in the foundation piles, you win the game.

tableaus

These are the 7 piles on the playing board where you spend most of your time. Allowed moves are alternating colors in descending order. In Classic, you may move as many cards as you like if the move is valid.

tableaus - empty piles

By default, the rules are that you can only move Kings to new (empty) piles. But you can change this in the game options to allow any card.

stock pile

By default, cards are dealt one at a time out of the stock pile and into the waste. However, you can change this to deal 3 at a time in the game options. Unlimited redeals from the stock are allowed.
