Why it fits a quiet break
Classic Solitaire is useful when familiarity is more relaxing than novelty. The rules are easy to recognise, each move is small, and the game does not punish you for taking a moment to scan the columns before deciding what to uncover next.
How to play
Drag cards into descending alternating-colour stacks and build each suit upward.
