About This Game

FreeCell is the solitaire variant where skill trumps luck. All 52 cards are dealt face-up into eight tableau columns, so you can see exactly what you're working with from the start. Four free cells in the corner serve as temporary storage, letting you maneuver cards around the board. The goal is to build four foundation piles from Ace to King by suit.

Nearly every FreeCell deal is solvable — estimated at 99.999% — but finding the solution requires genuine strategic thinking. Free cells are your most precious resource: use them wisely and you can untangle the most knotted boards, but waste them and you'll find yourself locked out of critical moves.

How to Play

  1. All 52 cards are dealt face-up — no hidden information
  2. Build four foundation piles by suit from Ace to King
  3. Stack cards on the tableau in descending order, alternating colors
  4. Use the four free cells as temporary storage for individual cards
  5. Move groups of cards if you have enough free cells and empty columns
  6. Win by moving all cards to the foundations

Tips & Strategy

Keep free cells open as long as possible — they're your most limited resource
Plan several moves ahead before committing to a sequence
Prioritize uncovering Aces and low cards buried in the columns
Empty columns are extremely valuable — more useful than free cells for moving groups
