Limpopo

Goal

Move all the cards to the foundations.

How to play

The cards are dealt to eight piles of thirteen cards. Tableau piles are built down by alternate color. Any card or sequence of cards can be moved between tableau piles, and any card can fill an empty tableau pile. Cards can be moved to the foundations, which are built up by same suit, starting from ace.

There are two reserve piles. Single cards may be moved to or from the reserves. The reserve piles can have a max of four cards each, and only the top card from each can be moved.

The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.
