Stalactites

Also known as Grampus, Old Mole

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

The foundations build up by rank ignoring color and suit, wrapping around from King to Ace. The base rank is determined at initial dealing.

There is no building on the tableau piles, and spaces are not filled. Only the top card can be moved.

The two free cells can hold any - and just one - card.
