Quartets

Goal

Move all cards to the foundation.

How to play

Cards may be moved between the tableau piles, moving one card at a time. The tableau piles are built up or down by alternating colors.

There are four reserves, each of which can hold one card. If all four reserves hold a card of the same rank, all four of them are moved to the foundation. The game is won when the entire deck is moved to the foundation in this way.
