About the game
Eight Off, older than FreeCell, with no fewer than eight free cells. You build runs in suit instead of alternating colours and move every card to the four foundations in suit, upward.
Eight Off belongs to the FreeCell variant in the Solitaire world and joined the catalogue on April 16, 2015. The rules, levels and on-screen language are set by the game’s creator, and a short guide appears on its start screen.
How to play
- Move one card at a time between columns, free cells and foundations.
- Build the columns down in alternating colours.
- Build each foundation from ace to king in one suit.
Tips for a better game
- Free cells are your reserve: keep at least one empty for as long as you can.
- Dig out aces and twos buried deep in the columns first.
- An empty column is worth more than a free cell, because it lets you move longer runs.
