Mamy Susan

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

Four cards are dealt to each of ten tableau piles. Tableau piles are built down by alternate color. Only single cards can be moved between tableau piles, and any single card can fill an empty pile. An additional six cards are dealt to a reserve, with only the top card face-up. These reserve cards can only be moved to the foundations.

Cards can be dealt from the talon one at a time, and moved to the foundations or tableau piles. No redeal is allowed.

The foundations are built up by same suit from ace to king. The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.
