Peg Solitaire
Jump and capture until a single peg remains.
About Peg Solitaire
Peg Solitaire is played on the classic cross-shaped board. Jump a peg over a neighbor into an empty hole to remove the jumped peg, and keep going until only one peg is left. Daily positions are generated backwards from a single peg, so they are always solvable.
Play a new daily puzzle every day, or pick Easy, Medium or Hard in practice mode for unlimited puzzles.
How to play
- A peg may jump over an adjacent peg horizontally or vertically into the empty hole just beyond.
- The jumped peg is removed.
- Win by leaving only one peg on the board.
Daily positions are built backwards from a single peg, so they are always solvable. Undo if you get stuck; a hint finds a working jump.
Tap a peg to select it — legal landing holes light up — then tap a hole to jump.
Tips & strategies
- Keep pegs together — isolated pegs cannot be removed.
- Clear the outer arms of the cross before the center.
- Undo freely: dead ends usually show up a few moves early.
