FreeCell is the solitaire you win by thinking, not by luck: all 52 cards are dealt face up into 8 columns, so the whole game is in front of you from the first move. Use the 4 free cells and empty columns to dig out the Aces, build down in alternating colours and send every suit home from Ace to King. Undo and hints are unlimited. Pick a classic table, a gentle Easy deal, FreeCell Hard with only 3 free cells, or the daily evening table that everyone plays. Every table has its number, so you can replay it. FreeCell runs in your browser on a phone or a computer, free, with no download.
FreeCell is about planning, not luck: every card is face up, so each move can be checked before you make it.
New to FreeCell? Start with a classic table. All 52 cards lie face up in 8 columns; above them are 4 free cells on the left and 4 foundations on the right. The plate at the top shows the table's number, the time and your moves.
Before your next move
Parking cards in the free cells just to see what is under them fills the cells fast; with no free cell left you can carry only one card at a time.
Dropping a single card into an empty column wastes it: an empty column doubles the run you can move.

Questions about FreeCell
Is every FreeCell game solvable?
Almost. Of the 32,000 classic numbered deals only one cannot be won, and this game never deals it.
How many cards can I move at once?
One card plus one for each empty free cell, doubled for each empty column. With 4 empty free cells and no empty column that is 5 cards.
Do cards go home automatically?
No. You send a card home with a tap or a drag. Only when every column is in order does the Finish button appear and play the rest.
