What is the easiest game of solitaire?

Which version of solitaire is considered the easiest to learn and win? I’m new to the game and looking for recommendations.

Hello,

So I’ve been messing around with solitaire on and off for years now—nothing serious, just one of those games I keep coming back to when I’m bored or need a break. If you’re just getting into it, I’d say start with Klondike (draw 1). 

That’s the version most people think of when they hear “solitaire“—like”, the classic setup with cards in stacks, and you move them around by suit and number. The draw 1 part just means you only pull one card at a time from the deck, which honestly makes it way easier to control and way less frustrating for beginners

If you want something even more chill, though, Pyramid Solitaire’s a solid pick too. It’s not about suits or anything—you just match cards that add up to 13 and clear the board. It kind of feels more like a puzzle than a card game, and it’s super easy to get into without needing to learn a bunch of rules

Tripeaks is another fun one — you basically click cards that are one higher or lower than the last one. That’s it. Super simple, really forgiving, and kinda addicting once you get going

I started with Klondike personally, but once you learn one version, the rest don’t feel as intimidating. hope that helps a bit if you’re not sure where to begin.

so let’s say you’ve got a few minutes to kill, maybe you are waiting for your food to heat up or just avoiding chores (been there).

You open your phone or laptop and think, *“Let’s play a quick game of solitaire.* But then. Boom. There are like a dozen types! Klondike, Spider, FreeCell, what do they even mean?

Let me save you the headache. If you are looking for the **easiest** solitaire game to start with, it’s hands-down **Klondike Solitaire**. You know, the classic one that comes with most computers? That’s the one.

Why Klondike is the Chillest One

First of all, it’s super simple to understand. You stack cards in order, red on black and black on red, from king down to ace. Then you move them into the top piles from Ace up. That’s it. No crazy rules, no wild strategies.

And trust me, I was totally lost the first time I tried Spider Solitaire. Too many decks, too much going on. But Klondike? It just *clicked.* My little cousin even plays it, and he’s 13!

Plus, you get that nice feeling when the cards bounce across the screen after you win. it never gets old.
