Tableau column if it will form a descending sequence of alternating colours, e.g.Įmpty spaces in the Tableau can be filled by any card you like, but don't waste them as empty tableau spaces are very powerful as we will see later. You may move an exposed card from end of a tableau column or from a FreeCell to another The HomeCells are built up in ascending suit sequence to the King. As each Ace becomes available it may be transferred to one of the HomeCells. You may move it to an empty FreeCell at any time to release the card beneath,īut it's a good idea to keep the FreeCells empty for as long as possible. The exposed card at the end of each tableau column is available for play. The object of the game is to build the four HomeCells up in ascending suit sequence from Ace to King. The final four cards are dealt to theįirst four columns so that the first four columns in the tableau each contain seven cards and the last four columns on the right each contain six cards. A further five rows of eight cards are dealt face up on top of the first to form eight columns of six cards each. After thoroughly shuffling the deck, a row of eight cards is dealt face up to start The game is played with a single pack of 52 playing cards.

Therefore, nearly every single game of FreeCell can be won FreeCell is an 'open' solitaire meaning that all the cards are dealtįace up at the start of the game and this lets you analyze the outcome of moves before you make them. We'll look at how this works later,īut the more empty FreeCells you have, the larger the sequence that can be moved. The rules only allow you to move one card at a time but the FreeCells can be used to move larger sequences of packed cards between tableauĬolumns. The term 'FreeCell' is given to the four empty spaces above the tableau that are used for the temporary storage of cards.

FreeCell has become enormously popular after being bundled with all versions of Windows since 95, so I thought it was time Solitaire City had its own version.
