Klondike Classic Solitaire: Card Game for Girls

Klondike Classic Solitaire is the solitaire most people picture when they hear the word, sometimes called Patience. It mixes skill with a bit of luck.

The goal

Fill the foundations, one per suit, by building each from ace up to king.

The rules

The columns

Cards in the columns go in descending order with alternating colors.

Moving runs

You can move a whole descending run, of any length, from one column to another.

Empty columns

Only a king, or a run starting with a king, can go into an empty column.

The stock

When you run out of moves, draw from the stock pile.

Strategy

• turn over face down cards whenever you can
• do not empty a column unless you have a king ready to fill it
• move aces and twos to the foundations right away
