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. Keep the objective visible.
The objective of a round
Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
Start here and follow along
- Build down in alternating colours; kings fill empty columns. Valid ordered runs move together.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
The controls to know
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.
An example to follow
A red 6 fits a black 7, not another red 7. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Verify the rule before continuing.
An important reminder
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use.
