Solitaire Rules

Set-Up: The King and the King are placed side by side in the center of the layout. At the start of the game, an Ace of each suit is dealt to become the foundations.

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

• Queens

  • Whenever a Queen appears, place it in the circle around the King foundations, starting from the upper pile (corresponding to the vertical upper sun ray).

  • Then place the other 7 Queens in a clockwise direction, and in alternating colors.

  • Build the "Queen" foundations down in suit by twos from Q, 10, 8, 6, 4 to 2 (for example, a 10 can be played on a Q).

• Jacks

  • Whenever a Jack appears, place it in the circle around the Queen foundations, beyond a Queen of the opposite color, starting from the upper pile (corresponding to the vertical upper sun ray).

  • Then place the other 7 Jacks in a clockwise direction, and in alternating colors.

  • Build the "Jack" foundations down in suit by twos from J, 9, 7, 5, 3 to Ace (for example, a 9 can be played on a J).

• Kings

  • Whenever a King appears, place it upon the King foundations, in alternating colors.
