Download Freecell Solver

Stop Sign

Stop! Don't you want a Graphical Interface?

Freecell Solver is not a graphical program, and is instead oriented towards software developers and users of the UNIX/Linux or Windows command lines. If you prefer a graphical program with a convenient interface and an animated solution look at the graphical front-ends for Freecell Solver that people have prepared.

Of these we can recommend PySolFC which is open-source, cross-platform, configurable, and supports a very large number of Solitaire variants.
