General Hex A Deck rules

Base game rules: 8 x 8

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

As the name implies, the eight playing piles in the tableau all start with eight cards face-up.

Piles build down by alternate color, and an empty space can be filled with any card or sequence.

When you select the talon, one card is turned over onto the waste pile. There is no limit to the number of times you go through the talon.

You are also permitted to move cards back out of the foundation.

Playing tips

Try to go for an empty space.
