Play free Klondike Solitaire online — the classic Klondike card game with one 52-card deck and seven columns. Move every card to the four foundations, building each suit up from Ace to King. On the table, build down in alternating colours, red on black and black on red, and turn over face-down cards as you go. Choose Turn 1 (Draw 1) for an easier game or Turn 3 (Draw 3) for the traditional challenge. Undo, three free hints per deal and a Check deal button are built in, and the game runs in your browser with no download.
Like every good solitaire card game, Klondike rewards planning. The best move is usually the one that turns over a hidden card or frees a column, not simply the first legal move. Only a King, or a run that starts with a King, can fill an empty column, so think before you empty one.
Click the stock in the top-left corner to turn over cards. In Turn 3 you see three cards, but only the top one can be played. Not sure whether the deal can still be won? Check deal searches for a winning continuation from the current position.
Before your next move
Turn over face-down cards first — they hide the cards you need.
Keep an empty column for a King that can use it, rather than filling it with the first card available.
In Turn 3, look at the top waste card before drawing again.
An inconclusive Check deal does not mean the deal is lost.

Questions about Klondike Solitaire
How do you play Klondike Solitaire?
Move all 52 cards to the four foundations, one per suit, building from Ace to King. On the seven table columns, build down in alternating colours and turn over face-down cards as you free them. Only a King, or a run starting with a King, can fill an empty column.
Is Klondike Solitaire free?
Yes. You can play Klondike Solitaire online free in your browser, with no download. Every deal comes with three free hints.
What is the difference between Turn 1 and Turn 3?
Turn 1 (Draw 1) turns over one card from the stock at a time, which makes the game easier. Turn 3 (Draw 3) turns over three cards, and only the top one can be played — the traditional, harder way to play.
What does Check deal do?
It searches for a winning continuation from your current position. A positive answer means a win is still possible, not that the game is finished. An inconclusive answer does not prove the deal is lost.
Does Undo restore the score?
Yes. Undo returns the cards, the score and the move counter to the previous position. The timer keeps running.
Will my game be saved?
Yes, in this browser. Your deal, chosen variant, score and moves stay after a page reload. Clearing site data or using another device starts fresh.
