Solitaire Rules

Foundations (Four piles; upper right side of screen)

• Build up in suit from Ace to King. For example, a 2 can only be played on an Ace .

• You must build the four Aces first, then the four Twos and so on, finishing with the four Kings. Build in any suit, as advantageous.

• Autoplay is available.

Cells (or Reserve; four cells, upper left)

• These are the "cells". The cells are storage (holding) locations for cards being played to the foundations and the tableau.

• Cells can hold only one card at a time.

Tableau (Eight columns, below foundations and cells)

• 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, to another tableau column or to the cells.

• Move groups of cards if they are in sequence, and if there are enough free cells where the cards could be moved individually.

• Spaces may be filled with any card or card sequence.
