Frequently Asked Questions

How many FreeCell game numbers are there?

The original Microsoft FreeCell included 32,000 deals numbered 1 through 32,000. Modern implementations extend this to 1,000,000 or more using the same random number generator algorithm with larger seeds.

Do all FreeCell game numbers produce the same deal everywhere?

Yes, as long as the implementation uses the same Microsoft-compatible dealing algorithm. Game #617 will produce the exact same card layout on any compatible FreeCell program, allowing players worldwide to compare results on identical deals.

Which FreeCell game numbers are impossible to win?

Of the original 32,000 Microsoft deals, only #11982 is proven impossible. In the extended 1,000,000 deal set, a handful of additional impossible deals have been identified, including #146692, #495000, #512118, #517776, and #781948.

What is the easiest FreeCell game number?

While difficulty is somewhat subjective, deals like #164, #278, #420, and #1029 are widely considered among the easiest. These feature accessible Aces, natural card sequences, and forgiving layouts that most players can solve quickly.

How are FreeCell game numbers generated?

Each game number serves as a seed for a linear congruential random number generator (the same algorithm used by Microsoft Visual C++). The seed determines the exact order in which all 52 cards are dealt to the eight tableau columns, producing a unique but reproducible layout.
