FAQ
How many solitaire variants does this cover?
Common variants like Klondike, Spider, FreeCell, and Pyramid, each with their own deck count, layout, and win condition rules.
Why do variants differ so much in difficulty?
Rules around how many cards you can move at once, whether you can redeal, and how tableau building works all affect how solvable a given deal is, which is why some variants feel much harder than others.
Does this let me play the game?
No — this is a rules reference only; play your chosen variant in a card game app or with a physical deck.
