Strategy +

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

At a glance

Like Strategy, but with only six tableau piles, and the aces aren't dealt to the foundations at the start, but are moved straight to the foundations when they turn up in the talon.

Base game rules: Strategy

Goal

Move all cards to the foundations.

How to play

At the start of the game, the aces are dealt to the foundations.

One card is flipped over at a time and moved onto one of eight the row stacks. There are no restrictions on which card may go where on the stacks. Once on a stack, a card can only be moved onto a foundation.

The foundations build up in suit from Ace to King. You can only move cards to the foundations once all cards have been placed on the row stacks and the talon is empty.
