Scorpion Solitaire: rules and examples
Choose a round of Scorpion Solitaire and settle into its rules. Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Check the rule that explains your first action. Look at what changes after your first action.
Seven columns; three stock cards dealt once to the first three columns. Free solo play, no wagering.
A small practice goal
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Refer to the controls when needed.
What counts as success
Complete four same-suit king-to-ace runs. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Notice how the game responds to your input.
How to proceed
- 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.
How your actions work
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Read the example below alongside these instructions.
Put the rules into context
The trailing cards may be unordered, but the destination suit and rank must match. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Take a moment to compare.
A useful caution
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.
