Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

A card is dealt to each of four foundations and four tableau piles. Building on the tableau is not allowed. The foundations are built up or down by rank regardless of suit. If there are no moves left, you can deal a card from the talon to each of the tableau piles. The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.
