How to play Aladdin Solitaire
Dive into a rich Middle Eastern-themed solitaire experience where matching is key. Here’s how you can play:
Game Objective
Your goal is to match and remove all cards by pairing two cards of the same value. Clear the tableau to complete a level.
Controls (Flash Desktop)
- Mouse: Click or drag two cards of the same rank to match and remove them.
- Stock Draw: When no matches are available, click the stock deck at the bottom to reveal two new cards. You can only do this up to 3 times per level.

The game features 20 distinct layouts, each a puzzle in itself. Every level comes with a time limit—complete all matches before time runs out!
Strategy Tips
- Plan ahead by uncovering which matches will free up other cards.
- Use your 3-stock moves sparingly—reserve them for genuinely deadlock situations.
- Focus first on clearing cards that block access to larger sets.
