The essentials of playing Yukon Solitaire

Look at the complete hand before deciding. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Use the rule sheet as a reference. Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns. Use another round to revisit a decision.

One deck, no stock, Yukon deal. Free solo play, no wagering.

A focus for your next round

Begin with the objective. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.

What the game asks you to do

Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.

The steps to play

  1. Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Move exposed cards onto suit foundations in the stated rank order.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

Making selections and moves

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Take a moment to read the table.

Put the rules into context

A red 6 carrying an unordered tail can move onto a black 7. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

Where a round can go wrong

Take a moment to read the table. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.
