There are many types of solitaire, such as Klondike, FreeCell, Pyramid, Golf, and Spider. Most computer operating systems include simple solitaire games such as Spider Solitaire on Microsoft Windows. [1]
In Klondike, the player wins the game when the player has all the cards in four stacks organized by color ("suit") and number.[2]
In many countries (for example, UK), solitaire is called Patience.
