If you are up for learning some simple strategies or tips that can increase your chances of winning at the game, then you have stopped by the right place. We have summed up some simple tips that can really boost your chances.

 

Tips to Win at Freecell:

Let’s dig into these simple game tips to win at Freecell:

  • Before you start playing, the most important thing to do is to study the layout of the cards. People usually start moving the cards right away without having a look at the layout and what they have in front of them. Look and think of a strategy. Quick moves just ruin your chances of a victory, no matter at what stage of the game you opt for them. Think before you start playing and think before every move you make, if you are seriously aiming to win.
  • You must give a higher priority to the aces as they go in the foundation first. You need to get them uncovered first and then the twos and three and so the list goes on.
  • Don’t move cards to the free cell blindly as it limits your mobility. Go back to the first tip; think before you make a move. We are not stating that you must not use the free cell ever (not at all). What we are aiming at is to use the free cell cleverly and move cards to it thoughtfully. If you dont think before you move a card in that space, it will limit your mobility which will lead to losing.
  • The biggest tip here is to consider that the empty column is very useful (more than the free cell). Why? This is because it can hold more than one card. It is very helpful for moving your sequences between the piles easily.
  • Lastly, if you place the King card in the empty column; you are making a good move. This is because this is the only card that cannot be moved onto another card. However, keep your game situation in mind and then take this step.

 

CONCLUSION

Solitaire is not a new game but it’s modified versions have made it more fun and interesting to play. And with the right strategies and thoughtful tips, you can amp up your chances of winning at it.
