In Game Screen:
To Play, use the cursor stick to highlight piles and enter to select/move them. Use the left soft button to draw a card or redeal, and the right button to open the in game menu. In game use the back key to undo a move at any time.
Advanced players can use the following keys to speedup gameplay:
- 1 through 0: selects the column corresponding to the number (1 selects the first, 2 the second etc)
- * then digit: selects the corresponding reserve (*1 for first, *2 for second etc)
- # key: selects the waste pile
To select a foundation pile, Autoplay (see options) must be turned off and you must use the cursor pad to highlight the desired pile. In this way you can use cards that have been played to the foundation to build down a column.
NOTE: It is not necessary to select the card you're moving in games like Scorpion or Yukon. Select an entire column and its destination and the game will usually know what card you mean. To move to an open column, you will have to cursor select the desired cards.
Menu:
- Autoplay: if Autoplay is off, this menu option does a round of autoplay.

Autoplay and Autoflip are time saving options that automatically play cards to the foundation piles and flip face down cards respectively. These can be shut off in the options screen for players who prefer to do it themselves.
