Move all cards to the tableau, in four columns with two complete sequences each from ace to king, from ace to king, then wrapping around, and up to king again.

At a glance

Like Eight Packs, but the sequences can wrap from king to ace. In order to win, the cards need to be arranged in four columns, each wrapping around and containing two full sequences.
Base game rules: Eight Packs

Move all cards to the tableau, in eight columns with complete sequences from ace to king.

How to play

A card is dealt to each of ten tableau piles. Tableau piles are built up by same suit. Any card or sequence of cards can be moved between tableau piles, and an empty pile can be filled by any card or sequence.

Cards are dealt from the talon one at a time, and can be moved to the tableau. Two redeals are allowed. The game is won if all cards are moved to the tableau in eight sequences of the same suit, from ace to king.
