Base game rules: Measure

Goal

How to play

A card is dealt to each of eight tableau piles. Cards are dealt from the talon one at a time, and can be moved to tableau piles, which are built regardless of suit and rank, but once in the tableau, cards can only be moved to the foundation.

There is only a single foundation pile, built up by rank regardless of suit, turning the corner from king to ace as necessary, starting from any rank. The game is won if all cards are moved to this one foundation.
