Start with Goldfield Solitaire if you want classic Klondike: Draw 1 is gentler, Draw 3 is harder, and you can switch whenever you like. It also keeps a score and a win streak, with points for foundation plays and flips. The five solitaires here are free to play in your browser, and every deal in all of them can be won, so a lost game is never the deal's fault.
Which solitaire fits what you want?
Alcove FreeCell is for planning. All 52 cards are dealt into eight cascades with four free cells, so you win by thinking ahead.
Octet Spider Solitaire sets the difficulty by suits: 1 suit is easy, 2 is medium and 4 is hard. The daily deal always uses 2 suits.
Karnak Pyramid Solitaire clears pairs that add up to 13, and you choose 2, 1 or 0 redeals before you start.
Talus TriPeaks Solitaire is the fast one. Tap a card one rank above or below the open card, and runs build a streak multiplier.
Which solitaire has a campaign?
Karnak has a 60-stage journey through six chambers and Talus a 120-stage journey through ten mountain ranges. Each new place adds a rule, from wild and frozen cards to boulders, locks and bombs, and each stage gives up to three stars, so there is a reason to come back after a clear.
