Yukon Solitaire
Play standard Yukon with seven columns, no stock and four suit foundations. Move any faceup card together with every card below it, even when that group is unordered. Use legal hints and exact undo for practice, or complete a fresh challenge to share the same deal and compare legal moves.

Whole number from 0 to 4294967295. The same seed reproduces every dealt card.
Select any faceup card to move it and all cards below it. Their internal order does not need to form a sequence. Place the leading card on the next higher rank in the opposite color, or a King on an empty column.

Accuracy. Standard Yukon deals 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 cards, with 21 facedown and 31 faceup: tableau builds down in alternating colors, any faceup suffix may move in its existing order, and only a King-led suffix fills an empty column. Foundations accept exposed cards from Ace to King by suit, stay locked in this variant, and newly uncovered cards turn faceup. There is no stock or betting, and seeded deals are shuffled without a solvability guarantee.
Common questions
- How do you play Yukon solitaire?
- Move a faceup card and all cards below it onto an exposed card one rank higher in the opposite color. Move exposed Aces to their suit foundations, then build those foundations upward to King. You win when all 52 cards reach the four foundations.
- Can I move a group that is not in order?
- Yes. In Yukon the leading card determines whether the destination is legal. The cards below it travel in their existing order, even if they do not alternate colors or descend in rank. Only a King-led group can fill an empty column.
- How are the cards dealt?
- The seven columns contain 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 cards. Their facedown prefixes contain 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 cards, for 21 facedown and 31 faceup cards in total. There is no stock. A newly exposed facedown card turns up automatically.
- Can I take cards back from a foundation?
- This version locks foundation cards in place. Only one exposed top tableau card can enter a foundation, and it must be the next rank of that suit. A buried Ace cannot jump past covering cards.
- What do hints and undo do?
- A hint selects a legal move without applying it; it does not promise that the deal can be won. Undo restores the previous move, exact card order, facedown counts and source selection. Both actions make a challenge practice only.
- How does the seeded challenge work?
- Finish a fresh unassisted deal to unlock a link, native sharing and a PNG result card. The link carries only the seed, fixed Yukon rules and your claimed move count. The recipient starts the same deal, completes it and compares their moves with yours. Lower is better, and scores are self-reported.
- Are all deals solvable, and can I resume later?
- Seeds shuffle the standard deck without a solvability check. The browser saves the latest round and seed when local storage is available. Saved rounds, previously opened deals, hints and undo remain playable as practice, with scored sharing disabled.
- Can I play with a keyboard?
- Use Tab to reach each faceup card, column destination and suit foundation. Press Enter or Space to select a card and activate a destination. The tableau has a labelled scroll area so every column and long card stack remains reachable.
