Solitaire Rules
Set Up
-
At the start of the game, the player will distribute all fifty-two cards, one by one, to the eight tableau columns and to the first four reserves. The cards should be distributed to maximize a game win.
-
The labels above each tableau column and the first four reserves indicate how many cards must be added or remain to be added to each column.
Foundations (Four piles)
Tableau (Eight columns of six cards each)
-
Build down in suit. For example, a 10 spades can only be played on a Jack spades.
-
The top card of each column is available for play to another tableau column, to the foundations 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 can be filled only with a King or a King–sequence.
Cells (or Reserve; eight cells)
