Regency Solitaire is a card game with a setting in early-nineteenth century England, during the reign of George IV. You are shown a group of cards dealt on the screen. At the bottom is a face down deck and one card turned face up. What you must do is, using your mouse, click a card that is one next card higher or lower, numerically, than the face up card, irregardless of suit. So, if the face up card is a Jack, you can click a ten or Queen. If your card is an Ace, you can click a two or a King. If there are no cards for you to use, click the face down deck to turn over the top card and, hopefully, get something you can use. If you clear six or more cards in a row, that creates a combo and increases your multiplier.

Later in the game, you will encounter locked cards. These are cleared by finding then using cards with a key on them. You will also encounter Regal Locks. These are removed by clearing the required number of regal (face) cards. You will find some cards with a bow on them. These must be cleared twice. As you play, you will find wild cards and Jokers. Wild cards can be placed on the face-up pile at the bottom, irregardless of what card is there. Then, the next card from the play field, numerically, can be played. Jokers work the same except, then, any card from the play field can be played. You will uncover helpful statuettes like the Cupid and lyre. The Cupid removes one card from the play field, provided it is cover covered or, in some way, locked. The lyre rearranges the cards on the play field so new ones are face up.
