What is Daily Deal: Clock?

Beat the clock in Daily Deal: Clock—a strategic race against time in our suite of daily solitaire games! Set around a circular 12-hour clock face with a central King pile, each daily seed presents a unique layout shared globally across all players. Your objective is to reveal all face-down cards before drawing the fourth and final King. Work efficiently, banish high-risk cards, and complete the clock in as few moves as possible to beat the target par score! Check back every day for a fresh deal.

How to Play Daily Deal: Clock

Daily Deal: Clock blends traditional Clock solitaire placement with unique strategic move choices:

  • Daily Seed: Everyone plays the exact same card layout each day for fair competition.
  • Clock Layout: 12 piles correspond to clock hours (1 through 12, with Jacks as 11 and Queens as 12), surrounding a 13th central pile for Kings.
  • Matching Numbers: Place drawn cards under the pile corresponding to their rank (e.g., 5s go to the 5 o'clock position, Queens to 12 o'clock).
  • Banish Kings: If you suspect a face-down card is a King, banish it to another pile to delay drawing it—though the next card drawn must be played face-up.
  • Game Over & Victory: Revealing all four Kings ends the game immediately. Uncover all face-down cards across the clock before the fourth King is placed in the center to win!

Controls & Features

  • Card Placement: Tap or drag cards directly to their matching hour position on the clock layout.
  • Banish Action: Select and move an unrevealed card to an alternate pile to bypass a potential King draw.
  • Undo Button: Reverse recent choices to optimize your sequence and keep move totals low.
  • Move Counter: Track your total actions in real time to ensure you stay under the daily par score.

Strategy Tips to Beat Par

  • Delay Central Kings: Banish suspected Kings away from the center pile whenever possible to buy precious turns and unlock hidden numbers.
  • Target Low-Card Piles: Focus on clearing piles with fewer face-down cards early to establish safe options and maintain momentum.
  • Balance Banishments: Banish wisely—forced face-up draws after a banish leave less room for error, so use this mechanic only when a King threat is high.
