FreeCell: learn through an example
FreeCell gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Keep the instructions close while learning this activity. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
One face-up deck. Transfer capacity counts available cells and spare empty columns. Free solo play, no wagering.
Practice with a purpose
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Notice the feedback after each input.
The challenge in front of you
Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Notice how the game responds to your input.
Step by step
- Build down in alternating colours; four cells each hold one card. Empty columns accept any legal group.
- 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. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Use one clear input at a time.
Learn from a sample situation
With two empty cells and no spare empty column, a group of at most three cards can move together. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Look for the relevant detail.
Notice this detail
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
