Its also luck based, my adhd ass has been playing solitaire since elementary school. It helps me focus on audio since my eyes and hands are busy

I'm the opposite. Listening to audio gives me unparallel focus. It's like being on 2 different modes.

Only if it is music. I can not function if it is a podcast. I can't focus on a task and a podcast at the same time.

Thanks. I never played any card game, so I'll have to give it a try someday. Saw someone playing it on their phone the other day.

Quick FYI: There are a lot of different rulesets for Solitaire (like, a lot), but the version most people are talking about when they talk about just plain "Solitaire" is properly called Klondike. As far as I know, it's the version with the simplest rules, so it's a good starting point.

Have fun when you get around to it!
