My friend is stuck in a game of solitaire and sent me the screenshot of it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to solve it! So I'm turning to TL to help us figure out how to beat this bitch game of solitaire.

Here's the screenshot:
[image loading]

Also I'm pretty sure that there has to be a way to solve it because it's supposed to tell you if you've run out of moves and lost.

THANK YOU TL KNOWLEDGE-BASE! ^_^_^_^_^_^_^

nooooo :< there's other times where it tells you when you've run out of moves and lost too though. Is it just not a consistent system?



oh well

thanks everyone!

You haven't run out of moves because you can continuously shuffle between piles. It's the same for freecell, but yeah this game is unwinnable.

This is why I play freecell, because you CAN win every game >: D

Well you see there are moves, but none of them lead to winning. You can move the Black ten of clubs in the left column to the red jack of hearts all day back and forth. So there are moves

it's a loss..

and I actually haven't played a solitaire game where 3 cards are drawn, I always play with one card hahaha I guess that makes me a noob.

my win rate in 3card draw is still a paltry 20%, but i guess its good enough, since i usually never think about the game while playing, usually just playing it while watching some boring tv show, stream or listening to music or a podcast.

Also check out game -1.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].
