Solitaire Rules

Foundations (Four piles; upper right side of screen)

• Build up in suit by twos from A, 3, 5, 7, 9, J, K, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 to Q. For example, a 3 can only be played on an Ace.

• Autoplay is available.

Cells (or Reserve; four cells, upper left)

• These are the "cells". The cells are storage (holding) locations for cards being played to the foundations and the tableau.

• Cells can hold only one card at a time.

Tableau (Eight columns, below foundations and cells)

• Build down in alternating colors by twos. For example, a 9 can be played on a Jack.

• The top card of each column is available for play to the foundations, to another tableau column or to the cells.

• Move groups of cards if they are in sequence, and if there are enough free cells where the cards could be moved individually.

• Spaces may be filled with any card or card sequence.

Stock

• Click once on the stock to deal a row of 8 cards to the tableau.

• There is no redeal.
