How to play Canfield Solitaire
Canfield uses one deck. 13 cards go to the reserve, with only the top one face up. The next card starts the first foundation, and its rank is where all four foundations start. Four cards start the tableau, and the other 34 are the stock. Build all four foundations to win.
- Foundations build up in suit from the starting rank, going round the corner: if they start at 7, they go 7, 8 … Queen, King, Ace, 2 … up to 6.
- The tableau builds down in alternating colours, also round the corner: a black King can go on a red Ace.
- A run in order can move together. When a pile empties, the top reserve card fills it straight away. Once the reserve is empty, any card can go into a space.
- Tap the stock to turn three cards onto the waste; only the top one can be played. When the stock runs out, tap it again to turn the waste over. There's no limit on passes.
- Play the reserve down whenever you can: it's the key to winning.
- To move a card, tap it, then tap where it goes. You can drag instead. Double-tap a card to send it to its foundation. Cards that are safe to send home go there by themselves.
Undo has no limit, and it can take back a turn of the stock too.
Keyboard
Arrow keys move between cards and places. Enter or Space selects a card and places it. D turns cards from the stock, H shows a hint, Escape cancels a selection, and Ctrl+Z undoes a move.
Questions
Why don't the foundations start with Aces?
In Canfield, the first card dealt to a foundation sets the starting rank for all four. If it's a 7, every foundation starts with its 7 and builds up to the 6, going round from King to Ace.
What is the reserve for?
The reserve holds 13 cards, and only its top card is in play. When a tableau pile empties, the top reserve card fills it straight away. Getting the reserve down is the key to winning.
Can every deal be won?
No. When we tested 40 random deals with a computer solver that could see every card, it won about half. Daily deals can all be won: the solver checks each one before we publish it.
