THE PLAYBOOK · GYYSJZD
Getting started with Golf Solitaire
Bring your attention to one round of Golf Solitaire. Remove all 35 tableau cards. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Seven columns of five, one stock pass. Free solo play, no wagering.
Practice with a purpose
Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your goal
Remove all 35 tableau cards. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Start with a deliberate move.
How a round unfolds
- Take an exposed bottom card one rank above or below the waste top, allowing ace–king wrapping.
- Click an exposed card or eligible pair to remove it.
- Draw when useful.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
How to use the controls
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Use the visible help when you are unsure of the next input.
A useful example
Waste queen accepts jack or king. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
Avoid this misunderstanding
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round.
