About Peg Solitaire

Peg Solitaire is the classic single-player puzzle played on the English cross board of 33 holes, starting with the centre empty. Jump any peg straight over a neighbouring peg into an empty hole — the peg you jumped is removed. Tap a peg, then tap the hole you want it to land in. The goal is to keep jumping until just one peg remains, ideally right in the centre. No luck, no shuffle — pure logic, running entirely in your browser. No signup, no download.

Frequently asked questions

On the 33-hole cross board, jump a peg in a straight line — up, down, left or right — over an adjacent peg and into the empty hole just beyond it. The peg you jumped over is then removed. Tap a peg to select it, then tap the landing hole.

You win by reducing the board to a single peg. The classic challenge is to leave that last peg sitting in the centre hole, which the Normal and Hard difficulties require.

Yes — jumps are orthogonal only, never diagonal, and always exactly one peg over into the empty hole immediately beyond it. There must be a peg to jump and an empty hole to land in.

Easy starts with the centre empty and lets you win with one peg anywhere. Normal uses the same start but requires the final peg to land in the centre. Hard begins from a tougher off-centre layout and also demands a centre finish.

If no peg can jump and more than one remains, the puzzle is over for that attempt. Start a new game and plan your jumps further ahead.
