SOLITAIRE

The classic card game for a few quiet minutes. Deal, drag the cards into place, and get all 52 up to the four piles from Ace to King. There's no score to chase, just the clock, the number of moves and your winning streak.

PLAY IT NOW

A game of solitaire under way on green felt: seven columns of blocky pixel-art cards, the deck, and three foundation piles started — A game under way

A won game: cards bouncing across the table in long trails, and a message with the time and the number of moves — Win, and the cards bounce

Solitaire's first screen: the player's made-up name, the Deal button and their stats — Your stats, on every device

HOW TO PLAY

It's Klondike, the solitaire most computers have had for years, turning one card at a time.

The columns: build them down in alternating colours, red on black and black on red. A run of face-up cards moves together. Only a King goes into an empty column.
The four piles at the top: build them up by suit, from Ace to King. Get every card there to win.
The deck: tap it to turn a card over. When it's empty, tap it again to turn the pile back over, as often as you like.
Changed your mind? Drag the card you just moved back where it came from. Only your last move undoes.

On a computer drag the cards with the mouse; on a phone or tablet drag them with your finger.

PUT IT ON YOUR HOME SCREEN

The best way to play is from Solitaire's own icon on your desktop or home screen. It opens like an app, without the browser around it. Press Play it now first, then:

ON THIS DEVICE

Windows or Chromebook (Chrome or Edge)

Click the Install button at the right of the address bar. Or open the browser's menu (⋮ or …) and choose Install Solitaire (in Edge: Apps, then Install this site as an app).

ON THIS DEVICE

iPhone or iPad

In Safari, tap the Share button (a square with an arrow pointing up), then Add to Home Screen, then Add.

ON THIS DEVICE

Android phone or tablet

In Chrome, tap the menu (⋮), then Add to Home screen or Install app.

ON THIS DEVICE

Mac (Safari)

Choose File, then Add to Dock. (In Chrome or Edge on a Mac, use their Install button instead.)

ON THIS DEVICE

Firefox on a computer

Firefox can't install games as apps. Bookmark the game instead, or open it in Chrome or Edge to install it.

WHERE IT WORKS

Computers with a mouse or touchpad: Windows, Mac, Chromebook, Linux.
Phones and tablets, upright or sideways.
Your stats and the game you're in the middle of are kept on your device, and follow a player on a TRI_BOI account to their other devices.

FOR PARENTS

Every player is treated as under 13. It's a game for one: there's no chat and nobody else to talk to. Nobody types a name. Your child's name is a made-up one from their TRI_BOI player, like SwiftFox27, the same in every TRI_BOI game, shown only to them.

Nothing about your child is collected, and there are no ads or trackers. The game keeps only their stats (games played and won, best time, winning streak) and the game in progress.

If your family enjoys our games, you can leave a tip. It's never needed to play.
