Solitaire Rules
Foundations
-
The foundations are not built on directly.
-
The thirteen columns are both tableau and foundations, and all building is on the tableau.
-
When an entire suite of thirteen cards becomes exposed, it is automatically removed from the tableau.
-
The game is won if all eight sequences are discarded.
Tableau (Thirteen columns of eight cards each, all face up)
-
Build down in suit (for example, a 5 can only be played on a 6).
-
The top card of each column is available for play to another tableau column.
-
Any face up card, no matter how deep it is in a column, may be moved to make a build. All covering cards are moved with it as a unit.
Note: To reveal a partially-hidden card in a column, press Ctrl+Right click on the card.
-
Spaces can be filled only with a King, a King–sequence or a King with any covering cards.
