Peg Solitaire

A game for the flight: works without internet

Peg Solitaire is great for a long flight, a road trip, or anywhere with no signal. Get ready once, before you leave:

1. While you have internet, open the site.
2. Tap "Get ready for a flight" and wait for the "Ready for the flight!" message.
3. On iPhone: add the site to your home screen so the games are not cleared.
4. On the plane, in airplane mode, open Peg Solitaire and play: no network, no ads.

Can I play Peg Solitaire without internet?

Yes. While you are online, open the site and tap "Get ready for a flight". All the games are saved on your device, and from then on Peg Solitaire works in airplane mode, with no network, no ads and no sign-up.

How to play

Tap a peg, then an empty hole two steps away in a straight line — the peg jumps over the peg in between, and that peg comes off the board. Leave as few pegs as you can.
