Best Intermediate Foundation-Building Games

Intermediate-difficulty picks among foundation-building games.

  1. Klondike (Draw Three)

    The stricter Klondike variant: the stock deals three cards at a time, and only the top card is playable.

    • One deck
    • 12 min
    • Intermediate
  2. FreeCell

    Nearly every deal is winnable with the right plan — four free cells give just enough room to maneuver every card into place.

    • One deck
    • 15 min
    • Intermediate
  3. Yukon

    No stock at all, and any face-up card moves together with everything piled on top of it, however disordered.

    • One deck
    • 15 min
    • Intermediate
  4. Spider (Two Suit)

    A more forgiving Spider variant played with only two suits instead of all four.

    • 2 decks
    • 16 min
    • Intermediate
  5. Spider

    Build same-suit sequences from King to Ace across ten tableau columns using two full decks and four suits.

    • 2 decks
    • 20 min
    • Intermediate
  6. Westcliff

    Three rows of seven and one pass through the stock, but any card at all may take an empty column.

    • One deck
    • 9 min
    • Intermediate
  7. Easthaven

    A Westcliff variant that deals a fresh row across every column when you stall, and admits only Kings to a space.

    • One deck
    • 10 min
    • Intermediate
  8. Gate

    Eight tableau piles between two five-card gateposts that refill any space you open.

    • One deck
    • 10 min
    • Intermediate
  9. Little Spider

    Eight piles in two rows, with two Aces built up and two Kings built down — unrelated to Spider despite the name.

    • One deck
    • 10 min
    • Intermediate
  10. Nestor

    Remove pairs of matching rank from across the tableau columns until none remain.

    • One deck
    • 10 min
