Golf Solitaire: rules and examples

Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Golf Solitaire. Remove all 35 tableau cards. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.

Something to practise

Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal. Make the next step deliberately.

What you are aiming for

Remove all 35 tableau cards. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.

From the start of a round

  1. Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping.
  2. Click an exposed card or eligible pair to remove it.
  3. Draw when useful.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

Getting comfortable with the controls

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.

A useful example

Waste queen accepts jack or king. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Keep the game’s format in mind.

Keep this in mind

Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Compare the situation with the worked example. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
