🃏 How to Play

🎯 Goal

Move all 52 cards to the 4 foundation piles, building each from Ace to King by suit. Score as many points as possible before you run out of moves or time.

🃏 Basics (Classic Klondike)

  • Tableau — Stack cards in descending order, alternating colours (red 6 on black 7)
  • Foundations — Build Ace → King by suit (top-right slots)
  • Stock — Tap the deck (top-left) to draw cards to the waste pile
  • Controls — Tap a card to select it, then tap where to move it

✨ The Twist: Joker Cards

Every time you complete a foundation pile (Ace through King), a Joker Shop appears. Pick 1 of 3 Joker cards that change the rules for the rest of your run!

  • Grey = Common — Helpful tweaks
  • Blue = Rare — Powerful modifiers
  • Gold = Epic — Run-defining (from foundation 2+)

🌈 Example Jokers

  • Colour Blind — Stack same colour (ignore alternating rule)
  • Wild King — Any card can fill an empty column
  • Rank Skip — Cards can stack with a gap of 1 rank
  • Foundation Bonus — +50 pts per card on foundation
  • Risk/Reward — No undo, but all scores ×2

📊 Scoring

  • Card to foundation: +100 pts
  • Flip face-down card: +25 pts
  • Complete a foundation pile: +1,000 pts
  • Perfect clear (all 4): +5,000 bonus
  • Time bonus: +1 pt per second remaining
  • Joker multipliers stack on top!

⏱️ Timer & Game End

You have 10 minutes. The game ends when time runs out, you get stuck, or you clear all 4 foundations. Remaining time becomes bonus points!

Foundation complete! Pick a Joker to bend the rules.

Solitaire Roguelite Tips and Strategy

  3. Build tableau columns in alternating colors and descending order to maximize options
  4. Empty columns are extremely valuable — fill them strategically with Kings
