Your guide to Canfield Solitaire
Before making a move, check the cards in view. Complete four suited foundations beginning at the dealt base rank and wrapping king to ace. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Keep the active rule in mind. Build tableau runs down in alternating colours, wrapping ace to king. Reserve cards refill empty columns automatically. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
Thirteen reserve cards, four columns, draw-three recyclable stock. Free solo play, no wagering.
Practice beyond the first move
Use the rule sheet as a reference. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
