Patience, also known as solitaire, is a type of card game designed for a single player. These games involve arranging cards in a specific order or layout, often requiring strategic thinking and careful planning. While traditionally played solo, some variations allow for competitive play between two players, with the winner determined by a scoring system. The goal is usually to sort or stack cards according to set rules, making it a popular pastime for those who enjoy puzzle-solving and card strategy. Solitaire remains a favorite due to its simple yet engaging mechanics, offering entertainment whether played alone or in a more competitive setting.
