Solitaire Rules

  • During the deal, four cards, regardless of suit or rank, are removed from the stock to become the four foundation piles.

Foundations (4 piles; top of screen: complete these piles to win the game)

  • Inspect the layout and decide whether to build the foundations up regardless of suit by ones (e.g. 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King, Ace, 2, etc.) or twos (e.g. 9, Jack, King, 2, 4, 6, etc.) from the first card to the King, wrapping around from King to Ace until each pile contains 13 cards. The choice applies to all four foundations.

  • No building on these piles.
