Play Russian Solitaire Online - Yukon's Tougher Cousin

Russian Solitaire is a challenging variant of Yukon with one critical difference: you must build tableau sequences by suit instead of alternating colors. This single change makes the game significantly harder, perfect for experienced players!

How to Play Russian Solitaire

Objective: Move all 52 cards to the four foundation piles, building them up by suit from Ace to King.

Key Rules

• No Stock Pile: All cards dealt to tableau - complete visibility
• Build by Suit: Tableau builds down by suit (harder than alternating colors)
• Flexible Movement: Move any face-up card with all cards below it
• Kings Only: Empty tableau columns can only be filled with Kings

Difference from Yukon

The only difference from Yukon is the tableau building rule:

• Yukon: Build down in alternating colors (red-black-red...)
• Russian: Build down by suit (hearts on hearts, spades on spades...)

This makes Russian Solitaire significantly more difficult!

Winning Strategy Tips

• Plan carefully - Suit building is restrictive, think ahead
• Expose cards strategically - Revealing the right cards is crucial
• Use Kings wisely - Empty columns are precious
• Don't rush foundations - Keep cards in tableau for maneuvering
