How to play

Cards in tableau are built down by alternate color. Groups of cards can be moved regardless of sequence. An empty pile in the tableau can be filled with a King or a group of cards with a King on the bottom.

Foundations are built up in suit from Ace to King. Cards in foundations are no longer in play.
