FreeCell · All cards visible

FreeCell Solitaire

Every card is dealt face-up, so skill always wins out over luck.

How to play

FreeCell is a skill-based solitaire where all 52 cards are visible from the start. The four free cells and empty columns act as temporary holding spaces to unlock sequences.

The setup

Eight tableau columns hold all 52 cards face-up. Four free cells and four foundation piles sit in the top row.

Moving to foundations

Move cards to the foundations in suit order from Ace to King. Double-click a card to auto-send it to the correct foundation when a valid slot is open.

Tableau sequences

Stack cards in descending rank and alternating colors (a black 6 on a red 7). Click a card — or the start of a valid sequence — to select it, then click the destination.

Free cells

Each free cell holds exactly one card. Use them to temporarily park cards you can't place elsewhere. A free cell card can move to any valid tableau column or foundation.

Supermove

You can move a multi-card sequence in one click as long as you have enough free cells and empty columns. The limit is (freeCells + 1) × 2^(emptyColumns).

Strategy

Plan ahead — freeing an empty column is extremely powerful but costs moves. Nearly every deal is solvable; running out of moves is almost always avoidable.
