Solitaire Rules

The base card for this game will vary. At the beginning of the game examine the tableau and choose one of the 7 exposed cards as the first foundation.

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

• Build up in suit 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 (7 columns)

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

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

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

• Any face-up card, no matter how deep it is in a column, may be moved to make a build. All the covering cards are moved with it as a unit.

• Spaces may be filled only with a card having a rank just below the base card, or a unit of cards.
