RULES & STRATEGY

Solitaire Turn 3.

Turn 3 uses the familiar Klondike table with a different stock rhythm. Reading the waste correctly matters as much as arranging the seven columns.

THE OBJECTIVE

How to play

Move all 52 cards to their suit foundations, with three-card draws from the stock.

  1. Build columns downward in alternating red and black. A correctly ordered face-up sequence can move together.
  2. Only a King, or a sequence beginning with a King, can fill an empty column.
  3. Build each foundation from Ace to King in one suit. You may move its top card back to a column.
  4. Draw up to three cards at once. Only the top waste card is playable; moving it exposes the card beneath. Recycle the waste when the stock is empty. Redeals are unlimited.

A rule in action

J♣9♥A♠Playable ↑
Three cards may be visible in the waste, but only the rightmost top card is playable. Moving it exposes the card beneath.
01

Only the top waste card is available

Each draw reveals up to three cards. The fan lets you see them, but you cannot take a card from underneath the top card. Playing the top card exposes the card immediately below it. If only one or two stock cards remain, the next draw reveals that smaller group.

02

A played card changes the next pass

When you recycle the waste, its remaining order determines the next groups of three. Removing a card can change which cards become accessible on the next pass. An unchanged pass repeats the same access pattern, so look for a useful waste move rather than drawing indefinitely.

03

Plan around the seven columns

Build table sequences down by rank with alternating colors. Only Kings fill empty columns. Foundations build from Ace to King in one suit. Prioritize moves that reveal hidden cards, but check whether a waste move creates access to another card you need. Use Undo to compare branches without losing the original position.

Common questions

How many passes are allowed?

CasualNook allows unlimited passes through the stock. The passthrough counter records how often you recycle the waste.

Can I switch a saved Turn 1 game to Turn 3?

These are separate games with independent saves. Switching variants opens or starts that variant; it does not convert the current deal.

Controls, saves and offline play

Tap a card for an available move or drag it to choose a destination. Tab moves between cards. Space selects a card; Enter on a destination moves it. D draws from the stock in variants that have one.

H gives a hint, Ctrl/⌘ Z undoes a move, and F toggles fullscreen where supported. Each variant saves separately on this device. Switching language keeps the same save. Up to 100 undo steps are retained.

First open the game online. Once the menu says “Available offline”, you can reopen it without a connection while your browser retains its data. Clearing site data also removes saved games.
