Solitaire Rules

Foundations

  • The foundations are not built on directly.

  • The thirteen columns are both tableau and foundations, and all building is on the tableau.

  • When an entire suite of thirteen cards becomes exposed, it is automatically removed from the tableau.

  • The game is won if all eight sequences are discarded.

Tableau (Thirteen columns of eight cards each, all face up)

  • Build down in suit (for example, a 5 can only be played on a 6).

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

  • Any face up card, no matter how deep it is in a column, may be moved to make a build. All covering cards are moved with it as a unit.
    Note: To reveal a partially-hidden card in a column, press Ctrl+Right click on the card.

  • Spaces can be filled only with a King, a King–sequence or a King with any covering cards.
