Solitaire Bliss is a good site. That is an awkward sentence for a competitor to open with, but it is true, and a comparison that pretends otherwise is worth nothing to you.
We are TrySolitaire. We run a free solitaire site, so we are not a neutral party and you should read this with that in mind. We have no connection to Solitaire Bliss. What follows is what each site does well, where they genuinely differ, and which one fits which player.
Solitaire Bliss is a free, browser-based solitaire site with several dozen variants. You can play without registering. A free account is optional, and it saves your statistics and sends daily challenges by email. Hints and undo are unlimited. The site carries advertising, generally a modest banner rather than pop-ups or video.
It is focused. It does solitaire, and it does it carefully.
Two things, and both are real.
Guaranteed-winnable deals on every game. Solitaire Bliss offers a mode that only deals hands that can be solved. Our winnable deals are limited to the daily challenge, where the seeds are pre-verified. Everywhere else we deal honestly at random, which means some hands cannot be won. If unwinnable deals frustrate you, this difference matters more than anything else on this page.
An adjustable card size. You can make the cards larger on Solitaire Bliss. We cannot do that yet. Our cards scale with the browser window, so a bigger window gives bigger cards, and browser zoom works — but that is a workaround, not a setting. We know it, and it is on our list.
Three hundred games, not several dozen. If you want Klondike, Spider and FreeCell, both sites have them and the count is irrelevant. The difference shows up at the edges: Forty Thieves, Yukon, Canfield, Scorpion, Seahaven, Bristol, Thieves of Egypt and a long tail of variants that most sites never built. Each is implemented from cited rules rather than guessed at.
Puzzle games as well as cards. Sudoku, Mahjong, 2048, Memory and word games sit alongside the solitaires, so one site covers a mixed appetite.
Cross-game leaderboards. One ranking across every game you play. That is a difference about today rather than a promise about next year, and you should treat any free site's advertising position that way.
Cross-game leaderboards. Ours run across the whole catalogue rather than per game: a rolling 24-hour board and an all-time board, with your rank shown against the field.
Statistics before you decide about an account. We start recording from your first game with no account at all. If you later create a free account, the play you have banked is carried up into it and follows you to any device you sign in on.

Stay with Solitaire Bliss if you want every deal to be winnable, or you need larger cards. Those are the two things we cannot match today, and neither is a small preference — for some players they are the whole experience.
Try us if you have played the common variants to death and want the unusual ones, you want puzzle games in the same place, or you would rather not see advertising.
Use both. They are free, they take one click each, and nobody is asking you to choose.
TrySolitaire runs 301 card and puzzle games in a browser. No account is required, nothing installs, and every game is open on the first click.
Start with the classics — Klondike, Spider, FreeCell, Pyramid, TriPeaks — or go straight to the variants most sites skip. Every game has unlimited undo and a hint button.
Play Solitaire Free — No Sign-UpYes, and it does not require registration. An optional free account adds statistics and daily challenges by email. The site is supported by advertising.
Yes. They are generally reported as a modest banner rather than pop-ups or video interruptions.
We would say us, and we are obviously biased. The honest version: we have far more games and cross-game leaderboards, while Solitaire Bliss has winnable-only deals and an adjustable card size that we do not.
We do — 301 against several dozen. Whether that matters depends on whether you want variants beyond the well-known ones.
No, on both. The difference is that we record your statistics before you have an account, and Solitaire Bliss starts saving them once you create one.
No. We are an independent site and a direct competitor. Solitaire Bliss is a trademark of its owner and is named here only to compare the two services.
