Find your footing in Yukon Solitaire

Use the rule sheet as a reference. 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. Work at your own pace. Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.

One deck, no stock, Yukon deal. Free solo play, no wagering.

One thing to notice as you play

A clear plan starts with the current position. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

What counts as success

Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Take the next action only when the current step is clear. Treat this as a chance to practise one rule.

Making your moves

  1. Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Move exposed cards onto suit foundations in the stated rank order.
  4. 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. Take the next action only when the current step is clear. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.

One way to understand the rules

A red 6 carrying an unordered tail can move onto a black 7. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.

Notice this detail

Work at your own pace. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
