Yukon Solitaire: what to know before playing
Before making a move, check the cards in view. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Use another round to revisit a decision. Take a moment to read the table. Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns. Use another round to revisit a decision.
One deck, no stock, Yukon deal. Free solo play, no wagering.
A small practice goal
Look at the complete hand before deciding. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Use another round to revisit a decision.
The goal to keep in mind
Build four suit foundations from ace to king. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. A clear plan starts with the current position.
Step by step
- Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Move exposed cards onto suit foundations in the stated rank order.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
Making selections and moves
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Use another round to revisit a decision. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.
An example to follow
A red 6 carrying an unordered tail can move onto a black 7. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
A common point of confusion
Begin with the objective. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
