About Microsoft Solitaire Collection
Microsoft Solitaire Collection puts five well-known solitaire card games in one place, in the official version from the makers of Windows. If you grew up clicking through Solitaire on an office computer, this is the same game. Four other favourites sit next to it, so you can switch whenever one gets too familiar.
The five games
- Klondike: the classic that most people simply call Solitaire. Build four piles from Ace to King, one for each suit, using the seven columns on the table.
- Spider: eight columns of cards. Build full runs from King down to Ace to clear them, in as few moves as you can manage.
- FreeCell: every card is face up from the start, and four free cells give you temporary storage. Almost every deal can be won with careful planning.
- Pyramid: remove pairs of cards that add up to 13 to clear a pyramid of cards. Kings count as 13 on their own.
- TriPeaks: clear three peaks of cards by picking cards one higher or one lower than the card on the pile, building long chains.
Controls
- Move cards: drag and drop, or click a card to send it to a valid spot. Tapping works on touchscreens.
Tips
- In Klondike, turn over hidden cards in the columns before moving cards to the foundation piles.
- In FreeCell, keep at least one free cell empty for as long as you can.
- In TriPeaks, look for the move that keeps your chain going, not just the first card that fits.
