Getting started with Russian Solitaire

Begin with the objective. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Work at your own pace. Move any face-up card and its tail onto the next higher rank of the same suit. Kings fill empty columns. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.

Yukon-style deal, same-suit building, no stock. Free solo play, no wagering.

Try a more deliberate round

Look at the complete hand before deciding. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Use another round to revisit a decision.

Your objective

A heart 6 fits a heart 7, not a spade 7. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
