FreeCell Solitaire is fundamentality different from most solitaire games in that almost every game can be won. It's been calculated that 99.999% of games are winnable, which is above and beyond the effective win rate for most Patience games.

This leads many people to think that it's an easier card game than most other types of solitaire. A more accurate way to put it would be that it's a strategy-based game, where luck plays a bigger part in games such as Classic Solitaire and Spider Solitaire. But don't be fooled by the fact that almost every game is solvable. Some games are excruciatingly challenging to solve!

The game was first popularized by Microsoft, who packaged the game along with Windows 3.0, and since then, more than 20 billion solitaire games have been played. To this day, it remains one of the most popular Patience games out there, and we can understand why.

We've taken great care trying to modernize this timeless classic. The layout and gameplay remain as it has always been, but the design and animations have been updated, so they feel crisp and modern.

We continually listen to feedback and update the game. If you have any ideas and suggestions, please get in touch with us at contact@online-solitaire.com, and we'll look into them. The game was last updated on .

Have fun playing!

FreeCell Solitaire Rules

For those who've played the game before, we've created a concise summary of the Solitaire rules. If you're familiar with the game, it should give you the refresher you want. If you're new to the game, read through our thorough guide on how to play FreeCell. It consists of 11 steps, complete with illustrations and a video tutorial.

Like many other solitaire games, the goal is to move all the cards onto the foundation piles. The game's layout can be divided into 3 main areas:

  • The tableau: This is where most of the game's action will occur. Notice that all cards are dealt face-up.
  • The free cells: A place where you can "park" cards temporarily.
  • The foundation: Move all your cards here and you'll win!

Layout of free FreeCell card game

The foundations are ordered by suit. The first card to be placed on the foundation is an ace. On top of that, a two, and so forth. Once all the cards are on the foundation, you have won the game. To get all the cards to the foundation, you can use the moves described below:

  • Move one or more cards from one tableau to another: You can move one or several cards from one tableau to another if the rank of the first card in a pile is one higher than the tableau you're moving to and the color is opposite of the card being moved.
  • Move a single card onto an empty free cell: You can move the top card of any tableau to its respective open cell. Make sure the card is of the same suit and one higher than the card on the open cell.
  • Move a card from an open cell: You can move cards from an open cell if that card is one higher than the card you're placing it on.
  • You can move a card from the tableau onto the foundations: You can do this manually or let it happen automatically. This can be configured under settings.
