Scorpion Solitaire: what to know before playing
Choose a round of Scorpion Solitaire and settle into its rules. Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Begin with the solo mode shown on the page. 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
Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart. Make the next step deliberately.
Understand the aim
Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
Follow these playing steps
- Move a face-up card with its tail onto the next higher same-suit rank. Kings fill empty columns.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
The controls to know
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. Look at the feedback after the action.
See the idea in action
The trailing cards may be unordered, but the destination suit and rank must match. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Keep the game’s format in mind.
Notice this detail
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
