Easthaven Solitaire

The original. The one everyone calls just "solitaire".

How to play Easthaven

Goal - Move all the cards to the Foundation

Decks

  • A standard deck (52 cards)

Redeals

  • No

Foundation

  • Built up by suit from Ace to King
  • The top card of each pile is available for move

Tableau

  • Build tableau piles down by the alternating color
  • The top card of each pile is available for move
  • Group of cards in the proper sequence can be moved
  • An empty pile can be filled with any card or correctly ranked pile

Stock

  • Press on the Stock to deal one card to each Tableau pile

Strategy & tips

  • Watch the stock-deal cadence - Easthaven only releases new rows when every column has at least one card.
  • Build long alternating-colour runs you can move as a unit when the stock deals.
  • Play aces and twos to the foundation immediately, but think twice before sending higher cards - you may need them in the tableau.
