Solitaire Rules

Foundations (4 piles: complete these piles to win the game)

• Build up in suit from Ace to King (for example, a 2 can be played on an Ace); then place the second King of that suit on the first King and in turn build down in suit to the Ace (for example, a Queen can be played on a King).

Tableau (16 piles in a 4 x 4 "Square")

• Build up or down in suit (for example, a 10 can be played either on a 9 or a Jack).

• Once a direction is started, the direction may not be changed for that particular pile (for example, you can play Jack, 10, 9, 8, etc.).

• Ranking of cards is not continuous: an Ace may be built only on a 2, a King only on a Queen.

• The top card of each pile is available for play on foundations or tableau.

• Only one card at a time can be moved.

• Spaces are automatically filled from the waste or the stock.

Stock

• Turn up one card at a time from the stock to the waste by clicking.
• There is no redeal.

Waste (One pile)

• The top card is available for play on foundations or tableau.
