Gold Rush Solitaire: free online solitaire
Looking for free online solitaire? This is the classic game most of us know: seven columns on green felt, and a deck to turn over. The cards are big and plain, so they are easy to read on any screen.
Your first games are gentle. Easy deals can always be won, so a new player gets to see how it feels to finish. When you are ready, try Classic or Hard.

How to play
- Open the game and pick Easy, Classic or Hard. Easy and Classic draw one card at a time. Hard draws three.
- Tap a card to move it. The game sends it home to the top piles if it can, and otherwise to the best column. You can also drag a card where you want it.
- Tap the deck to draw a card. When the deck runs out, tap it again to turn the pile over.
- Build the columns down in alternating colors, and stack each suit up from ace to king in the top piles.
- Stuck? Tap Hint and the card and its spot glow. Tap Undo to take a move back.
- Once every card is face up, the game flies the rest home for you.
Tips
- Turn over the face-down cards first. Each one you uncover gives you more choices.
- Try not to empty a column unless you have a king to put there.
- Use Easy to learn the rhythm, then move up. Hard draws three cards at a time, so plan a little further ahead.
