How to play Scorpion Solitaire

Take a moment with Scorpion Solitaire before moving to another game. Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. Use the example below to understand a decision. Check the rule that explains your first action. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.

Seven columns; three stock cards dealt once to the first three columns. Free solo play, no wagering.

Review a difficult moment

When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Keep the objective visible.

Your goal

Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Keep the controls in easy reach.

Step by step

  1. Move a face-up card with its tail onto the next higher same-suit rank. Kings fill empty columns.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

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. Read the example below alongside these instructions.

A useful example

The trailing cards may be unordered, but the destination suit and rank must match. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Check the stated objective.

Watch out for this

Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
