Foundations must be built in their row alternately in red and black. So, if a black Ace is placed, a red Ace must be the one to be placed beside it.

-
Build down in alternating colors. For example, a 10 can be played on a Jack .

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

A packed sequence, or any portion of it, may be moved to another tableau column.
-
Spaces can be filled with any available card or packed sequence.
-
When the game is completed, below each foundation on the tableau, will be a column consisting of a King, a Queen and a Jack in alternating colors.
Reserve ("Grace cards": eight piles below the tableau)
-
When the entire stock has been dealt, click the "Click to Fill" button. This will deal the top eight cards from the waste to the reserve row.
-
Any reserve card is available for play to the tableau pile or to the foundations.
-
Spaces can be filled only from the waste.
