Easthaven Solitaire Objective

The goal of Easthaven is to complete all four foundation piles from ace to king, one for each suit.

Easthaven Solitaire Setup

Easthaven’s setup looks similar to how you set up Solitaire, with these familiar areas for gameplay:

Easthaven Solitaire setup
  • Tableau: The tableau contains seven columns of cards with three cards in each column, two facedown and the third face up. Use the tableau to arrange cards in descending order, alternating in color (black/red or red/black).
  • Stockpile: All remaining cards are turned facedown to form the stockpile. When no other moves are available, use the stockpile to deal one face-up card to the bottom of each column. You get five deals from the stockpile, but the last one deals just three cards.
  • Foundation piles: The four foundation piles, separated by suit, are set up across the top of the tableau. You can move cards to foundation piles from the tableau, building each in ascending order from ace to king.

How to Play Easthaven

Play proceeds by moving cards among the tableau, dealing from the stock, and placing cards into the foundations, following these rules:

Easthaven Solitaire rules
  • Arrange cards in the tableau in descending order and alternating color. You can move either a single card or a complete run (sequence) that follows the alternating-color, descending rule.
  • Reveal hidden cards. If you move a card or sequence of cards that reveal a facedown card, then the facedown card can be turned over and put into play.
  • Fill empty tableau columns with any card or sequence of cards that follows the sequencing rule.
  • Build foundation piles in ascending order, starting with aces. As aces become available, move them to the foundations to get the piles started and then build them in ascending order, separated by suit, with cards from the tableau.
  • Use the stockpile when you get stuck. After you've made all moves available in the tableau, click the stock to deal one card to each tableau column (except in the last deal when only three are dealt). These new cards are dealt face up on top of each tableau column, possibly blocking sequences you’ve already made. You can have empty columns when you use the stockpile.
  • Continue building foundation piles until you’re completely blocked or you win. You keep moving cards, dealing from the stock, filling spaces, and moving to foundations, and you win if all foundation piles are completed. If no more legal moves remain and the stock is exhausted, the game ends.

Easthaven Solitaire Strategy

Playing and winning Easthaven involves thinking ahead. These tips help you maximize your chances:

  • Prioritize moves that expose facedown cards in the tableau. Revealing hidden cards early gives you more flexibility.
  • Try to vacate tableau columns. Empty columns are very valuable because any card or sequence can be placed there. So focus on moving cards out of columns to empty them as often as you can to open a space.
  • Look for moves that create the most future moves. You have limited chances to use the stockpile, and the stock can block sequences you’ve already made. So survey the tableau carefully so that you make a move that unlocks more options later.
  • Use the stockpile as a last resort. Although new cards from the stock may offer more options for gameplay, you also increase the risk of burying needed cards and sequences you’ve worked hard to build.
  • Only play aces and twos to the foundation piles. Because you can move sequences no matter how long they are, focus on building lengthy sequences, moving only aces and twos to foundations. Rushing foundation builds can take away cards you need for future moves.

Easthaven offers a mix of the familiar Klondike feel with tweaks that deepen strategy—fewer hidden cards up front, limited space, and careful use of the stock make every decision count. If Easthaven is too difficult, you can work on your strategy by playing Solitaire Turn 1, and you can practice limited stockpile use with Spider Solitaire 1 Suit.
