Move all the cards to the foundations. Solitaire Rules
Foundations (8 piles: complete these piles to win the
game)
-
Build the Ace foundations
up in suit
from Ace to King (for example, a 2
can be played on an Ace).
-
Build the King foundations
down in suit
(for example, a Queen
can be played on a King).
-
Reversal. When the top cards of two foundations
of the same suit are in sequence, one or more cards of one pile may be
transferred to the other, except for the Ace or King at the bottom.
Tableau (12 piles)
-
At the beginning, cards from the stock
are automatically dealt into 13 piles, forming the tableau and
the reserve. When a card turned from the stock corresponds
to the pile of its own rank (number), it is placed in a
fourteenth pile, face down, called the "Exile".
-
The top card of each pile is available for play to the
foundations.
-
The thirteenth pile (13) is spread out and any card is available to play
to the
foundations.
Reserve (1 column: the "exiles")
-
Turn up the top card of the exiles and if this card is playable on a
foundation, it must so be played, and the next exile card
turned.
-
If it cannot be played, it is placed under the tableau pile of its own
rank. The top card of that pile is removed and placed under the pile of
its own rank, and so on.
-
Continue shifting cards in this manner until a playable card is
uncovered at the top of a tableau pile.
-
When the exile card, or any other reached in shifting, is a King, it
stops the play. The King must be placed under the King pile and a new
while card turned.
Stock
-
Two redeals are permitted (three deals in all).
