Golf Solitaire: from controls to your first round
A clear plan starts with the current position. Remove all 35 tableau cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Before making a move, check the cards in view. Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.
Practice with a purpose
