Solitaire Rules

Foundations (4 piles: complete these piles to win the game)

• Build up in suit from Two to King, then Ace (for example, a 3 can be played on a 2).

Tableau (4 columns)

• Build down in suit (for example, a 7 can be played on an 8).

• Ranking of cards is continuous: build Kings after Aces when necessary.

• The top card is available for play to the foundations or to the tableau.

• An entire packed sequence may be moved to another tableau pile. Parts of a sequences may not be moved.

• Spaces are automatically filled with the top card of the reserve. After the reserve is exhausted, spaces may be filled from the waste (never from the tableau).

Reserve (1 pile of 13 cards: the "Storehouse")

• The top card is always available for play.

Stock

• Turn up one card at a time from the stock to the waste by clicking.

• Two redeals are permitted (three deals in all).

Waste (1 pile)

• Cards from this pile automatically fill spaces in the tableau.
