Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

Cards are dealt to sixteen piles of four cards each. An additional card is dealt to the foundation, this determines the base rank of the foundations.

Tableau piles are built down by rank, regardless of suit, wrapping from ace to king as necessary. Only single cards can be moved between tableau piles. Empty tableau piles can only be filled with a card of a rank one below the base rank of the foundations (or kings, if the base rank is ace). There are also four free cells, and any cards can be freely moved between the free cells and the tableau.

You can deal cards from the talon one at a time, and move them to the tableau or foundations. No redeal is allowed.

The foundations are built up by suit, starting from the base rank, and wrapping from king to ace as necessary. The game is won if all cards are moved to the foundations.
