About the Game

A simple Golf Solitaire game with several common rule variations and a challenge mode with 1,000 levels! Can you beat all 1,000 levels?

How to play

Move the topmost tableau cards to the waste pile, one at a time, as long as they are one up or one down in rank (suits do not matter). So, if your top waste card is a 7, for example, you may remove any 6s or 8s from the tableau.

In traditional Golf rules, aces are always low, and you may build A-2-A but not 2-A-K. You may not build up or down on a king at all. If you take a king from a tableau or deal one from the deck, simply deal another card from the deck and move along to the next tee. You may play through the stock pile only once.

Winning

The goal is to clear away the entire tableau, moving all cards to a single waste pile. At the end of the game, count how many cards are left in the tableau; this is your score -- the lower the score, the better.

Common variations on these rules include:

  • Queens may be played on top of Kings.

  • Turning the corner is permitted so that a King can be played on top of an Ace, and vice versa.

  • One or both of the Jokers may be added to the deck and used as wild cards that represent any value.

  • The foundation pile can start off empty, so players can choose one of the exposed cards to move them to the foundation for a "head-start".
