The Basics: How to Play

If you’ve played standard solitaire, you will feel right at home. You start with a shuffled 52 card deck and 7 columns, aka the tableau.

The Goal: Move all the cards into four ascending Ace Piles (one for each suit) before the timer runs out.
The Rules: You stack cards in the tableau in descending order, alternating colors (like placing a red 5 on a black 6). You can move single cards or whole stacks to reveal the face-down cards underneath.
The Draw Pile: Stuck? Tap the draw pile to get new cards. But be careful—depending on your game mode, resetting the draw pile too many times will start costing you points!
Empty Slots: Cleared a whole column? You can only fill that empty space with a King (or a stack starting with a King).

How Scoring Works:

In Solitaire Rush it’s not just about winning. It’s about winning, and it’s about winning efficiently. You score points for revealing cards, playing cards from the deck and building up the Ace Piles. The faster you clear the board the bigger the Time Bonus you will receive.

WorldWinner also offers different modes, such as 1-Card Draw and 3-Card draw, and an anycard mode for variety. Anycard is the player favorite mode as you can put any card into an empty column, not just Kings.

Scoring breakdown

Tips and tricks for a high score:

Hit the draw deck first: Always make your very first move off the draw deck. It opens up your options immediately before you start messing with the tableau.
Peek into the future with “Undo”: Did you know you can use the undo button (or double-tap your mobile screen) to “peek” at upcoming cards? Test a move, see what card flips over, and undo it if it doesn’t help you. It’s a brilliant way to plan ahead without penalty!
Tackle the biggest pile: Make it your mission to free up face-down cards from the thickest columns as early as possible. As a general rule, always prioritize plays that expose hidden cards over plays that don’t.
Aces and Twos always go up: Never leave your Aces and Twos sitting in the tableau. Move them to your Ace piles immediately!
Be smart with your Kings: Don’t just slap a King into an empty column the second you get one. Look at your blocking cards and think critically about which King will actually help you uncover the cards you need. Also, try not to empty a column entirely unless you already have a King ready to take its place.
Don’t be afraid to pull back: Sometimes you need a specific card to make a match on the board. You can pull cards back down from your Ace piles to the tableau if it helps you unblock a critical move. (It costs a few points, but it’s often worth it to keep the game moving).
Watch the cycle: Remember that bottom cards cycle when moving from the draw pile, so keep track of the rotation to plan your future moves.
