Solitaire Rules
The base card for this game will vary. At the beginning of the game, examine the tableau and choose one of the available cards as the first foundation.
Foundations (Four piles)
- Build up in suit from the base card to the rank just below the base card, until each pile contains thirteen cards.
- Autoplay is available.
Tableau (Seven columns)
-
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.
-
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.
-
Spaces can be filled only with a card having a rank just below the base card, or a unit of cards.
