Wasp Solitaire is a fun and challenging solitaire game that shares some similarities with Scorpion Solitaire and Yukon Solitaire. Here’s a basic guide on how to play Wasp Solitaire: Objective: The objective of Wasp Solitaire is to build four stacks of cards, each for one suit, in ascending order from ace to king. Setup: The game is played with a standard deck of 52 cards. 49 cards are dealt into 7 columns of 7 cards each. The first three columns are dealt face down, and the remaining four columns are dealt face up. The remaining 3 cards are set aside to form the stock. Gameplay: You can move cards between columns if the cards are in descending order and of the same suit. For example, you can place a 6 of hearts on a 7 of hearts. Unlike in some other solitaire games, in Wasp Solitaire, you can move any face-up card, not just the bottom one, to another pile if the move follows the rule of descending order and matching suit. When you move a card, every card on top of it moves along as part of the same stack. When you uncover a face-down card, it is flipped and becomes available for play. Spaces that are emptied can be filled with any card or sequence of cards. The stock can be used to add an additional card to each column when you run out of moves. Winning the Game: You win Wasp Solitaire by building four suit-specific foundation piles starting with aces and ending with kings. Unlike some solitaire variations, there are no designated spots for these foundations; the game is won once all cards are arranged into four sorted sequences within the tableau itself. Tips: Prioritize uncovering face-down cards to give yourself more options. Be strategic about when to use the stock. It’s often best to wait until you’re sure you have no other moves left. Emptying a column can be very powerful, as it allows you greater flexibility in moving cards around. Wasp Solitaire requires a mix of skill, strategy, and sometimes a bit of luck. Enjoy playing!
