Golf Solitaire — free online Card game

Clear seven columns by playing cards one higher or one lower.

Golf Solitaire is free to play in your browser with no download and no sign-up. Seven columns of five face-up cards sit above a waste pile; play the top card of any column if it is one rank higher or lower than the waste card, and turn a new card from the stock when you are stuck. Clear all thirty-five cards to win. Easy lets ace and king connect, Hard blocks everything on a king, and every deal is checked to be solvable.

How to play Golf Solitaire

  1. Thirty-five cards are dealt face up into seven columns of five; one card starts the waste pile and sixteen stay in the stock.
  2. Only the top card of each column can be played. It goes onto the waste pile if it is exactly one rank higher or lower than the waste card — suits do not matter.
  3. When nothing fits, turn the next stock card onto the waste. The stock is not recycled.
  4. Easy: ace and king connect. Standard: they do not. Hard: they do not, and nothing can be played on a king.
  5. You win when all thirty-five column cards are on the waste pile.

Do I have to empty the stock?
