Description
Add a playable game to any post or page in one step. Games run in a sandboxed iframe served by trysolitaire.com — nothing to install or maintain, no accounts, no sign-up for your readers, and games keep working offline once loaded.
21 games: Klondike, Spider (1/2/4 suits), FreeCell, Pyramid, TriPeaks, 2048, Golf, Yukon, Russian, Forty Thieves, Double Klondike, Australian Patience, Canfield, Easthaven, Eight Off, Baker’s Game, Baker’s Dozen, Spiderette, Scorpion, Wasp, Beleaguered Castle.
Two ways to embed:
- The TrySolitaire Game block — pick the game, theme, card style and language in the editor and see a live preview.
-
The
[trysolitaire]shortcode:[trysolitaire game=”spider” suits=”2″ theme=”navy” lang=”en”]
Attributes: game, theme (dark-green, dark, navy, midnight, teal, light), cards (card face style), lang (en, es, fr, de, nl, hi), draw (1 or 3, Klondike-family), suits (1, 2 or 4, Spider-family), timer, moves, hints, fullscreen (true/false), sound (on/off).
The embed is responsive and adapts its aspect ratio to phones and tablets. A small attribution line links to the game’s page on trysolitaire.com.

FAQ
-
Do my readers need an account?
-
No. Games start instantly, with no sign-up and no download.
-
Does the embed slow my page down?
-
The iframe is lazy-loaded — nothing is fetched until it approaches the viewport.
-
Can I remove the attribution link?
-
The single credit line below the game is how the free service is sustained; please keep it.
