Solitaire Rules

Foundations

(8 piles: complete these piles to win the game)

  • The base card for this game will vary. At the beginning of the game examine the tableau and choose one of the four exposed cards as the first foundation.

  • Build up in suit (for example, a 5 can be played on a 4) from the base card to the rank just below the base card until each pile contains 13 cards.

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

Tableau

(9 columns)

  • After the first foundation card is chosen, the rest of the tableau will be dealt.

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

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

  • The top card of each pile is available for play on another tableau pile or tothe foundations.

  • Only one card at a time can be moved.

  • Spaces may be filled with any available card from the stock or waste, not from the reserves or tableau.

  • Only the card exposed at the end may be built on the foundations. It may not be packed on the tableau.

Stock
