Free online FreeCell
In FreeCell every card is face up from the start: it's not about luck but about thinking. Almost every deal can be won. On FantaCarte you play it for free, also with Neapolitan cards.
FreeCell rules
- Goal: move every card to the four foundations, suit by suit, from ace to king.
- Columns: 8 columns, every card face up.
- Free cells: four spots at the top left; each holds any one card.
- In the columns: build down in alternating colours (with Neapolitan cards, different suits).
- Moving a run: it moves as if passing one card at a time through free cells and empty columns; the more free spots, the longer the run.
- Empty column: takes any card.
Tips to win
- Don't fill the free cells without a plan: with full cells you can't move.
- Free the aces and twos early.
- An empty column is worth more than a free cell: it doubles the run you can move.
- When every column is in order, Finish appears: the cards go to the foundations on their own.
