Crescent Solitaire 2
Want to play something similar to one of the most popular solitaire games on our site, Solitaire Classic? This is the game for you. You have 8 founding piles in the middle of the screen. For each suit there are two piles, and it's your goal to make piles for both top to bottom ranked and the other way around. It might make this game more difficult, yet more interesting at the same time. Can you finish all 8 piles in Crescent Solitaire 2?
How to play Crescent Solitaire 2
All the cards will be dealt in a half ring around the 8 founding piles in the middle. There will be four kings and four aces in the middle. For the piles with the king, you need to work from top to bottom. After the king, work on the queen, jack, ten, and so on. For the other pile, you will start with the ace and go to two, three, four and so on. Each pile on the outside has one card open. You can move the cards either to the founding piles or onto other piles. But you can only move cards that are either one rank higher or lower, and of the same suit, on top of each other.
What makes this game more difficult than normal variants of Solitaire games is the different orders in which you have to order the founding piles. It's definitely possible to succeed if you use a correct strategy:
- You should stack multiple cards on top of each other, keep in mind if you are going to use those cards for the up or down pile. If you stack the cards in the order 6, 7 and 8 for example, you can not use those cards for the down pile, because you need the order 8, 7, 6 for that. Think ahead of your moves and see which pile you want to use for which cards!
- You can use the hint and reshuffle button to help you if you are stuck. They only have limited uses, use them only when necessary! It is much better to try out every move first, because you have unlimited moves to go on.
