About ThreeCell Solitaire

FreeCell with just three spare cells. Every open space matters a little more.

Play with your favorite card artwork and the same familiar controls as our other games. Your progress saves automatically in this browser. Try a new shuffle or the daily deal whenever you like.

How to play ThreeCell

  1. Eight open columns contain seven cards in the first four and six in the rest. Three cells start empty.
  2. Build down in alternating colors. Any card or legal run can fill an empty column.
  3. Each cell holds one card. Group moves need enough empty cells and spare empty columns to move the cards individually. The destination is not a spare column.
  4. Build four foundations from Ace to King in suit. Move all 52 cards there to win.

Tips for winning

Keep a cell free and work toward opening a column for longer rearrangements.

Frequently asked questions

Can every deal be won?

No. Deals are shuffled and are not guaranteed to be solvable. Hints show available moves, not a promise of a winning solution.

Can I undo a move?

Yes. Use Undo to explore another route before the game ends. Foundation cards and removed cards stay in place unless you undo; they cannot be moved back manually in this version.

How does the daily challenge work?

The daily challenge uses a shared seeded deal for this game and date. Your regular game and daily progress are stored separately in your browser.
