Phoenix

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

Cards are dealt to six piles of six cards each. The remaining sixteen cards are dealt out on both sides of the tableau as reserve cards. Tableau piles are built down by alternate color and any card or valid sequence of cards can be moved between piles. Reserve cards can be moved to the foundations of tableau, but cards cannot be moved to the reserve.

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