Solitaire Rules

Foundations (7 piles)

  • The 7 piles are tableau and foundations at the same time and all building is on the tableau.

  • When a playable sequence (an entire suite of 13 cards) becomes exposed it is removed from the tableau.

  • The game is won if all 4 sequences are discarded (when you discard the whole deck in 4 sequences and nothing is left on the tableau).

Tableau (49 cards in 7 columns)

  • Build down in suit (for example, a 10 can be played only on a Jack).

  • Any card, regardless of where it is in a pile, can be moved together with the cards above it.

  • Spaces may be filled only with a King, a King-sequence or a King with any overlapping cards.

  • Nothing can be placed on an Ace (a King cannot move, except to an empty space).

Reserve (3 cards)

  • After all possible moves are made, the three cards in this pile are dealt out to the tableau to create more possibilities.

  • There is no redeal.
