Fan Solitaire is played with a full 52-card deck, arranged into 17 tableau piles with three cards in each, creating a distinctive fan-like layout across the board. The final leftover card stands alone, forming an 18th incomplete pile that adds a unique element to the setup.
The goal of the game is to build all the foundations upward in suit, climbing steadily until you reach King. As you play, keep in mind that only the top card of each pile is available for use, so timing your moves carefully is key.
The tableau piles themselves are built downward in sequence and by matching suit, giving the game a clean, orderly structure. And whenever a tableau pile becomes completely empty, you’re able to fill that open space with a King, offering a helpful strategic option as you work toward completing every foundation.
