Scorpion Solitaire Overview
Scorpion Solitaire was one of those games you'd find on a Flash gaming site in the late 2000s. It didn't have a lot of fanfare. You just clicked and started playing, a quiet digital version of a classic card layout that felt familiar to anyone who spent time with solitaire on a computer.
You control everything with the mouse, moving cards across a tableau of seven piles. The goal is to build four complete columns, each running from king down to ace in a single suit. The trick is that you can only move a card if the one you're placing it on is both the next highest rank and the same suit. You often move small stacks of cards together, which requires planning several moves ahead. When you get stuck, you can deal from a small reserve of stock cards to the first three piles, but this doesn't reset the board. The game moves at a deliberate, thoughtful pace. It feels like untangling a stubborn knot, where a single good move can suddenly make the whole puzzle fall into place.
