The game plays very much like the version of Patience bundled with Risc OS based machines - you can drag cards with the mouse, click on unturned cards to turn them over, or double-click a card to force it to the relevant finished pile. Compared to the Windows version, the only features missing are proper animation, selectable cards backs, showing all three cards when turned over and the various scoring options.

The main menu provides a number of options:

• 'Undo' is a single level undo;
• 'Deal' gives you a new hand;
• 'Resign' reveals all hidden cards and allows you to step through the remaining cards one at a time;
• 'Restart' plays the current hand again - a kind of super undo. You can do this even if the game has been won and all the cards are 'home', but you cannot restart a resigned game;
• 'Quit' quits the program.

In the 'Options' submenu, you can select:

• 'Any Card' which is the reverse of the 'Only Kings' option in the standard Risc OS version. This allows you to place any card in an empty stack instead of the usual Kings-only restriction;
• 'Draw One' replaces 'Reverse cards' in the standard Risc OS version, which turns the cards over one at a time instead of three at a time;
• 'Auto Move' behaves in the same fashion as in Window NT's Freecell. It detects when a card becomes surplus, i.e. there are no cards left which could be placed on it, and moves it automatically to the finished piles.
