Move all the cards to the foundations.
At a glance
Archway is a variant of Lady of the Manor, invented by David Parlett. It is played similarly, except all cards in the tableau are visible, and the foundations are built differently. The first four foundations have an ace of each suit dealt to them, and are built up by suit, while the other four foundations have a king dealt to them and are built down by suit.
Additionally, every card from the reserve piles is available to play. Hitting the redeal button will shift the topmost card of each reserve.
As not all aces are dealt to the foundations, a thirteenth reserve pile
on the far left is used for extra aces.
Move all the cards to the foundations.
At the start of the game, the aces are dealt to eight foundations.
Four tableau piles of twelve cards are dealt, with only the top card
of each pile visible. The remaining cards are dealt to twelve reserve
piles, forming an arch around the tableau, with each pile being dealt
the cards of a different rank - twos on the far left, leading up to
kings on the far right.
Cards from the reserves or tableau can be moved to foundation piles,
building the foundation piles up by rank, regardless of suit. No
building on the tableau is allowed. The game is won when all cards have
been moved to the foundations.Base game rules: Lady of the Manor
