Parashurama

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

At a glance

Play is similar to Klondike. The rows build down by rank only.

How to play

The cards on the tableau build down in rank regardless of suit. The foundations build up in rank by suit starting with the Ace. The cards are dealt from the talon three at a time. There is one redeal. Only Mirs (Kings) may be played on an empty row. Cards may not be played from the foundations.

Playing tips

The waste stack will be the biggest problem area. Play from it first. Move cards on the tableau to make every play possible before dealing more cards.

About Ganjifa

Base game rules: Klondike

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

Foundations are built up in suit from Ace to King.

The playing piles build down by alternate color, and an empty space can only be filled by a King or a sequence starting with a King.

When you select the talon, one card is turned over onto the waste pile. There is no limit to the number of times you go through the talon.

You are also permitted to move cards back out of the foundations.
