"Hi my name is Windy St. George and this is single player card games. Single player card games are known as Solitaire. There are many versions of Solitaire. The most common is Klondike which is where you deal out the cards, seven in a row, just one facing up, the rest down, then as you go you go to the second slot, one up, the rest down, one up, the rest down until finally you have all facing up. Any aces are brought up and then you can move other cards into this slot if you have Kings. The cards are played in alternating colors. If you don't have any more that you can take from here then you start dealing them out by three's to yourself. Some people play it by one's which is easier, by three's it is easier to lose, so there I just revealed the King and moved him over, put the five there and you continue and whenever you get two's and up you start building them on to your Ace's and you try to build everything in alternating colors on to the King and that's Klondike. There is also Clock which is played in a round where you have twelve cards just like a clock, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine and eleven, twelve and thirteen in the middle and then you keep going and again you start playing it just like free cell or you play it just like Klondike revealing cards and moving them off the board as you get aces. There is a third game called free cell which is also common and there are many more games of single player card games. You can look them up on the internet or find a book about them and that's how you play single player card games."
