Solitaire Rules
Foundations (Eight piles)
-
The base foundations cards will be determined by the first card dealt. If, for example, the first card dealt is a 7, the left foundations will begin with an 8 and the right foundations with a 6.
-
When the other ranking card as the base foundation appear during the deal, place them over it.
-
Build the left foundations up in suit until each pile contains thirteen cards.
-
Build the right foundations down in suit until each pile contains thirteen cards.
-
Reversal. When the top cards of two foundations of the same suit are in sequence, one or more cards from one pile may be transferred to the other as advantageous.
-
Autoplay is available.
Tableau
(Seven columns)
-
Build up or down in alternating colors.
-
Ranking of cards is continuous: build King after Ace when necessary.
-
The top card of each column is available for play to the foundations or to another tableau column.
-
Only one card at a time can be moved.
Stock
-
Turn up one card at a time, from the stock to the waste, by clicking.
