One thing to notice as you play

What you need to achieve
Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.
How to proceed
- Move a face-up card with its tail onto the next higher same-suit rank. Kings fill empty columns.
- 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.
How your actions work
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. Look at the feedback after the action.
Put the rules into context
The trailing cards may be unordered, but the destination suit and rank must match. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the controls nearby.
Avoid this misunderstanding
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. 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.
