Free Crescent solitaire online
Crescent is a two-deck patience game with an unusual twist: half of the foundations are built up from the Aces and the other half down from the Kings. Sixteen piles of six cards surround them, traditionally laid out in a crescent; here they sit in two tidy rows so the game fits any screen.
How to play Crescent solitaire
Move all the cards from the sixteen piles to the eight foundations.
- The four foundations on the left start with an Ace and are built up in suit to the King.
- The four on the right start with a King and are built down in suit to the Ace.
- Only the top card of each pile can be played. It can go to a foundation, or onto another pile whose top card is the same suit and one rank higher or lower. Kings and Aces connect.
- Empty piles are not refilled.
- Stuck? Tap the shuffle button in the middle. It moves the bottom card of every pile to the top. You have three shuffles per game.
- You can also drag a card between the two foundations of its suit when their top cards are next to each other in rank.
Crescent tips
- Use every move on the table before spending a shuffle.
- Moving cards between piles is what uncovers new ones; do not look only at the foundations.
- Shifting cards from one foundation to its twin can open up a blocked card.
How often can Crescent solitaire be won?
Some deals are much harder than others. There is no guaranteed win: use the available moves before spending a shuffle, and keep undo available to explore another route.
