Our picks among one-deck games.

  1. Aces Up

    Discard cards that rank below another card of the same suit across four piles, aiming to end with only the four Aces left.

    • One deck
    • 5 min
    • Easy

  2. Clock Solitaire

    A purely luck-driven game with no decisions — deal all 52 cards into a clock face and see if the Kings come up last.

    • One deck
    • 5 min
    • Easy

  6. Klondike

    The best-known solitaire game: build tableau columns down in alternating colors and move cards up to four suit foundations.

  7. 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

  8. Canfield

    Foundations start on a random rank instead of Aces, and a 13-card reserve pile adds real strategic pressure.

    • One deck
    • 15 min
    • Hard

  9. FreeCell

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

    • 15 min
    • Intermediate

  10. Scorpion

    Move any card onto any other regardless of sequence, then untangle same-suit runs across seven columns.
