How to play Scorpion Solitaire
- Forty-nine cards are dealt into seven columns of seven; the first four columns have three face-down cards at the bottom. Three cards are kept in reserve.
- Any face-up card can be moved together with all the cards on top of it onto the next higher card of the same suit.
- A face-down card that becomes uncovered turns over by itself. The reserve can be dealt once, at any time, one card onto each of the first three columns.
- A complete king-to-ace run of one suit is removed from the table. Remove all four to win.
- Easy and Standard let any card fill an empty column; Hard uses the classic rule that only a king can.

Frequently asked questions
Why is Hard so much harder?
With only kings allowed in empty columns, most random Scorpion deals cannot be won at all. Hard uses only deals a solver has proved winnable, and they leave very little room for mistakes.
Is every deal winnable?
Yes. Each deal was checked by a solver under the rules of its difficulty before it was offered.
