Solitaire Rules

• The four Aces are placed face up in a row to become the foundations.

Foundations

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

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

Tableau

(12 piles of 4 cards each)

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

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

• Only one card at a time can be moved.

• Spaces are not filled.

• Unlimited redeals are permitted until the game is blocked or won (the game is blocked when two deals in succession fail to produce a suitable card to play to the foundations).
