Crescent Solitaire
About Crescent Solitaire
Crescent Solitaire is a browser card game where you clear cards laid out in a crescent shape by moving them onto foundation piles. Kings start one set of foundations, building down by suit to aces, while aces start the other, building up by suit to kings. It plays free on phone or computer with no download.
How to play Crescent Solitaire
Only the top card of each crescent pile can be played, either to a foundation or to the tableau. Foundations built from kings go down by suit to aces, and foundations built from aces go up by suit to kings. On the tableau, cards build up or down by suit and can wrap round-the-corner, placing a king over an ace or an ace over a king. Use shuffles when no moves remain.
Tips for playing Crescent Solitaire
- Check every crescent pile's top card before moving anything, since only those cards are available to play.
- Remember tableau sequences can go round-the-corner, so a stuck ace or king may still have a home.
- Save your shuffles for moments when you are genuinely out of moves, rather than using them too early.
