About Triple Solitaire

Klondike solitaire is a traditional card game, and Triple solitaire, sometimes known as Triple Klondike Solitaire or Triple Deck Klondike Solitaire, is a distinctive and difficult variation of it. It is far more challenging than the conventional version because, as its name suggests, three decks of cards are used in place of one. The objective and rules of Triple solitaire are the same as for standard Klondike solitaire, but the dynamics of the game is slightly different due to playing with not one, but three decks of cards.

The Goal of Triple Solitaire

The goal of Triple solitaire is to build foundations by suit, from ace to king. Except that with three decks the number of foundations goes up to twelve.

The Setup of Triple Solitaire

The setup of Triple solitaire is the classic one: cascading tableau piles, the deck in the top left corner and the foundations about the tableau. However, as the number of cards in Triple solitaire is tripled, there are thirteen tableau piles, starting from one card in the first pile and going all the way up to thirteen cards in the last pile. All the cards in the tableau but the top ones are face down. The top ones remain face up and are available.

The Gameplay of Triple Solitaire

You play Triple solitaire games by building sequences of cards in descending order, from king to ace and of alternate colors. As long as they are arranged according to these rules, cards can be moved from pile to pile and from column to column. Only cards from the top of a pile may be moved. Once a face-down card is unblocked, it can be flipped over and becomes available.

In contrast to one-deck Klondike solitaire, in Triple solitaire, players must construct twelve full foundations in the same suit to prevail. As additional cards cannot be moved onto the foundations once they have been erected, careful planning is necessary. Moreover, Triple solitaire can also be played with a time limit, which gives it a competitive edge and increases its excitement.

How to Play Triple Solitaire

The goal of Triple solitaire is to arrange all the cards into twelve foundation piles in numerical order and by suit. The three decks are first dealt out into thirteen piles, from one card in the first pile and up to thirteen cards in the last pile. After that, you begin to play by rearranging your cards, adding to the piles from the deck, and removing them to the foundations.

If the card is of the same suit and is ranked lower than the card on another pile, you may move it to that card. A king – and only a king – may also be added to an empty tableau pile. You can also shift entire sequences of cards at once.

When you no longer have any moves left on the tableau, you can flip one card over from the stock pile and see if that gives you any new moves. If you don’t put this card onto the tableau, leave it where it is (this is a waste pile) and then flip over another card from the stock onto it. When you run out of cards in the stock pile, you can flip the entire waste pile over and start going through it again.

Rules of Triple Solitaire

Although the Triple solitaire rules may at first seem intimidating, with sufficient practice, you may become an expert at Triple solitaire. So, let’s sum up what we’ve already learned about Triple solitaire.

• Move every card from the tableau onto the foundation piles in Triple solitaire. Starting with the ace and concluding with the king, the foundation is built up in ascending order.
• You can move cards in the tableau onto each other to build sequences and uncover more face-down cards. The sequences can be built in descending sequence and alternating colors. So, you may place any black 4 on top of any red 5 if that card is the top card on the tableau.
• You can remove cards from the tableau to the foundations when you see fit. However, try not to rush, as you may need some of these cards later, and normally you can’t return cards from the foundations to the tableau.
• The game is won if all of the cards have been placed on the foundations and all of the rows have been removed from the tableau.
• The game is lost if there are still cards on the tableau and you can’t make any more meaningful moves.

Triple Solitaire is a game that requires both skill and luck to win. Luck – as not all shuffles are winnable, and skill, as you often need to train your memory, think several steps in advance, and utilize tactics to make the best moves and build up your foundations. Triple solitaire is a fantastic game to practice your abilities and clear your head.

Keep in mind that you can’t always win in Triple solitaire and don’t give up. You’ll soon become an expert at Triple solitaire if you keep practicing.
