Despite what you may think, solitaire isn’t actually a specific game … it’s actually a whole category of different card games. Solitaire is actually any card game that you play on your own. The game called “Solitaire” that Microsoft ships with Windows is actually a type of solitaire game, called Klondike.

solitaire game that supports rotated cards)
