How to play, in one minute
Get all 52 cards onto the four foundations, by suit from ace to king. Build the columns down in alternating colors, as in Klondike. The difference: there's no stock, and you can move any face-up card, with every card on top of it, even when they aren't in order.
- Tap a face-up card, then tap the column it goes on: a card of the other color one rank higher. A red 6 goes on a black 7, and the cards on the 6 come along.
- Empty columns take only a king, with whatever is on top of it.
- Face-down cards turn over once nothing is on them.
- Foundations: double-tap a card to send it up. Safe cards go up by themselves (you can turn that off in Settings), and you can bring a foundation card back down.
- Undo goes back as far as you like, and you get 6 hints a game.
The full rules are in our Yukon rules, and our Yukon strategy tips explain where to start.
How often can you win?
Most deals could be won if you could see every card. Our solver, which does, won 810 of 1,000 random deals (81%). On the other 190 it didn't find a win, which doesn't prove they can't be won: it stops after 120,000 positions and skips a few kinds of moves to save time.
A simple player that sees only the face-up cards and follows our hints won 87 of 200 deals and got 27.88 of the 52 cards up on average.

Questions
Is Yukon free to play here?
Yes. No account, no download and no limit on games. If ads ever appear, they'll stay off the table.
Can every deal be won?
With "Winnable deals only" on (the default), every deal is one our solver has won with every card known. You can't see the face-down cards, so you can still get stuck. Undo lets you try another way.
How is Yukon different from Klondike?
Yukon has no stock: all 52 cards are dealt at the start, with five face up on most columns. And in Klondike you can only move cards that are in order, while in Yukon any face-up card can move with whatever is on top of it.
Do the cards on top have to be in order?
No. Only the card you pick up and the card it lands on have to fit: one rank apart, opposite colors. Everything on top of the card you move comes along as it is.
Why did a card jump to the foundation by itself?
With "Send safe cards to the foundations by themselves" on, aces and twos go up on their own, and so does any card nothing left in play could need. Switch it off in Settings to move every card yourself.
What is Russian Solitaire?
Wikipedia describes Russian Solitaire as Yukon built by suit instead of by color. We play the color version.
What is today's deal?
One deal a day, the same for everyone, always one our solver has won. Win it to start a streak.
