Yukon Solitaire
Yukon Solitaire starts with all 52 cards already on the table, turning each game into a strategic puzzle. Are you clever enough to overcome all the obstacles?
Conquer the Yukon Solitaire Maze
Yukon Solitaire retains the familiar spirit of Klondike but eliminates the reserve deck. From the very first seconds, all 52 cards are on the table, with many still hidden. You can move an entire deck even if it's not arranged in the correct order. You must actively explore each column to open the way for important cards and complete the four decks from Ace to King.
Getting into the Game
- Yukon uses seven columns of cards along with four background squares.
- The first column begins with a face-up card.
- The remaining six columns contain both face-up and face-down cards, creating 21 hidden cards from the start.
- There are no reserve or discard piles.
- The four base squares will sequentially receive Aces and then continue building up to the King in the correct suit.
- Each time the last face-up card is moved from a column, the face-down card below is automatically flipped over, opening up more opportunities for subsequent moves.
Ultimate Goal
Winning comes when all four base squares have completed the sequence from Ace to King in the correct suit. Because there are no reserve cards, all opportunities are already on the table from the beginning. Success depends entirely on observation, planning, and utilizing large stacks at the right time.
Basic Controls
- Drag and drop cards or groups of cards to the appropriate position.
- Double-click a card to automatically move it to the base square when possible.

What makes Yukon different from Klondike?
You can move an entire group of cards out of order, creating many different options.
Why can a Yukon game change in just one move?
