The Yukon Solitaire playbook

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. Use another round to revisit a decision. Before making a move, check the cards in view. Build down in alternating colours. Any face-up card carries all cards below it, even when unordered. Kings fill empty columns. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.

One deck, no stock, Yukon deal. Free solo play, no wagering.

Practice with a purpose

Before making a move, check the cards in view. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.

Your inputs

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Use another round to revisit a decision. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.

Work through an example

A red 6 carrying an unordered tail can move onto a black 7. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

One detail worth checking

A clear plan starts with the current position. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
