Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

The tableau piles are built in seventeen sets of three cards, with two in the back row face-down, and a third face-up card overlapping them. The final card is dealt separately.

The tableau piles are built down by alternate color, with any face-up card or valid sequence of cards being movable. Once the top card is moved, the two below it can be flipped face-up and played. Empty piles cannot be filled, except for the final single card, where a king or sequence of cards starting with a king can be played.

Foundations are built up in suit from Ace to King. The game is won when all cards are moved to the foundations.
