How to Play FreeCell Solitaire
Objective: Move all 52 cards to the four foundation piles, building them up by suit from Ace to King.
Game Setup
Tableau: Eight columns, all cards dealt face-up. First 4 columns have 7 cards, last 4 have 6
Free Cells: Four empty spaces where you can temporarily store single cards
Foundations: Four empty piles where you build suits from Ace to King
FreeCell Initial Setup: 4 free cells (top-left) for temporary card storage, 4 foundations (top-right) to build each suit from Ace to King, and 8 tableau piles with all 52 cards dealt face-up. Every card is visible from the start!
Basic Rules
In tableau, build sequences in descending order (King, Queen, Jack...)
Alternate red and black colors (red 8 on black 9)
Only one card can be moved at a time (unless moving to empty column)
Use free cells to temporarily store cards
Empty columns can hold any card or sequence
Build foundations up by suit (Ace, 2, 3...King)
Valid Tableau Moves: Place red cards on black (5♥ on 6♠) and black cards on red (6♣ on 7♦). Properly ordered sequences can be moved together as supermoves when enough free cells and empty columns are available.
Key Strategy: Understanding SuperMoves
FreeCell lets you move sequences of cards, but the number of cards depends on empty free cells and empty columns. Our game automatically calculates this for you!
Maximum cards you can move:
With 0 free cells and 0 empty columns: 1 card
With 1 free cell and 0 empty columns: 2 cards
With 2 free cells and 0 empty columns: 3 cards
With 3 free cells and 0 empty columns: 4 cards
With 4 free cells and 0 empty columns: 5 cards
Each empty column doubles the number!
Winning Strategy Tips
Free cells are precious - Don't fill them all at once
Empty columns are even more valuable - Use them strategically
Plan several moves ahead - Think about how to free up blocked cards
Build down to expose Aces - Getting Aces to foundations opens up play
Don't rush to foundations - Sometimes keeping cards in play gives flexibility
Work evenly across columns - Don't focus on just one column
Remember card locations - All cards are visible, use this advantage!

Perfect Information: All 52 cards are visible from the start. This makes FreeCell more like chess than a typical card game.

History of FreeCell
FreeCell was invented by Paul Alfille in 1978 as a modification of an older game called Eight Off. It became enormously popular when Microsoft included it in Windows 95. The name "FreeCell" comes from the four free cells where cards can be temporarily stored.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are all FreeCell games winnable?
Over 99.99% of FreeCell games are winnable with perfect play. Unlike other solitaire variants where luck determines winnability, FreeCell is almost entirely skill-based.
Why can't I move multiple cards at once?
You can! Our game automatically calculates supermoves. The number of cards you can move depends on empty free cells and columns. The game handles this automatically.
What's the best opening move?
Look for Aces to move to foundations, then focus on exposing hidden cards by creating sequences. Don't fill all four free cells immediately - keep them available for tactical use.
