FreeCell: learn through an example
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. Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Build down in alternating colours; four cells each hold one card. Empty columns accept any legal group. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
One face-up deck. Transfer capacity counts available cells and spare empty columns. Free solo play, no wagering.
An idea for your next attempt
Take a moment to read the table. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.

Making your moves
- Build down in alternating colours; four cells each hold one card. Empty columns accept any legal group.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Move exposed cards onto suit foundations in the stated rank order.

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Use the rule sheet as a reference.
Follow the example
With two empty cells and no spare empty column, a group of at most three cards can move together. Use another round to revisit a decision.
Watch out for this
For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
