Solitaire

Everyone plays Solitaire at once, racing for the same foundations.

1 to 12 players

The Solitaire you already know: a 7-column tableau, face-down cards to uncover, and the classic climb to a cleared board. Here everyone at the table plays at once, in real time. There are no turns. Every player works their own board, and every board feeds the same set of shared foundation piles.

How to play

  • Each player deals their own Solitaire board from their own 52-card deck: 7 tableau columns, only the top card of each face up.
  • Play exactly like classic Solitaire: build tableau columns down in alternating colors, move whole runs at once, draw from your own stock pile when you’re stuck.
  • The twist: foundation piles (Ace to King, by suit) are shared across the whole table. Everyone’s aiming at the same piles, so a card you need might get taken by someone else’s board first.
  • Clear your entire board and you’re finished. You stay in the match to watch, but you’re done playing. The match keeps going for everyone else.
  • Highest score when the match ends wins; a fully cleared board always scores the maximum.

Good to know

  • 1 to 12 players. Solo play works exactly like traditional Solitaire if no one else is at the table.
  • Host settings: Live scoring and Recycle stock when stuck, same spirit as Nertz’s.
  • Face-down cards are truly hidden, even from you, until they’re revealed. No peeking at your own board ahead of time.
