THE PLAYBOOK · BLCQC

Read before your next round of Scorpion Solitaire

Read the aim of Scorpion Solitaire, then make your first move. Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. Look at what changes after your first action. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions.

Seven columns; three stock cards dealt once to the first three columns. Free solo play, no wagering.

Try a more deliberate round

When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Keep the objective visible.

The challenge in front of you

Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. The example below illustrates a decision.

Follow these playing steps

  1. Move a face-up card with its tail onto the next higher same-suit rank. Kings fill empty columns.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

How your actions work

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Read the example below alongside these instructions.

See the idea in action

The trailing cards may be unordered, but the destination suit and rank must match. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Look for the relevant detail.

An important reminder

Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
