Fanny

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

At a glance

Like Frog, but the reserve consists of twelve cards, and only the top one is visible.

Base game rules: Frog

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

Thirteen cards are dealt to a reserve called the frog. If an ace would be dealt to this reserve, it is dealt to the foundations instead.

Cards are dealt one at a time from the stock, and are moved to one of five tableau stacks, or the foundations. These stacks can be built regardless of suit or rank, but once a card is in the stacks, it can only be moved to the foundations. Cards in the reserve can only be moved to the foundations.

Foundations are built up from ace to king, regardless of suit. The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.
