Know the goal in Peg Solitaire
Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Peg Solitaire. Leave a single peg on the English cross board. Use the example below to understand a decision. Compare the starting position with the example in the Guide. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
English 33-hole cross; central starting gap; any final single peg wins.
Practice with a purpose
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.
Your objective
Leave a single peg on the English cross board. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Keep the controls in easy reach.
Step by step
- Select a peg and an empty hole two squares away.
- Jump horizontally or vertically over one peg, removing it.
- Plan so remaining pegs can still interact.
- Undo repairs a deadlock.
How to use the controls
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.
Try this example
Peg–peg–empty in one line permits one jump. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.
A mistake to avoid
Diagonal jumps and pulling are not allowed. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
