The Russian Solitaire playbook

Russian Solitaire gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

Yukon-style deal, same-suit building, no stock. Free solo play, no wagering.

An idea for your next attempt

Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Refer to the controls when needed.

Your goal

Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Notice how the game responds to your input.

How a round unfolds

  1. Move any face-up card and its tail onto the next higher rank of the same suit. Kings fill empty columns.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

Using the playing area

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. A new-round button replaces the current round.

See the idea in action

A heart 6 fits a heart 7, not a spade 7. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the controls nearby.

One detail worth checking

Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
