Base game rules: Triple Alliance

Goal

Move all but one card to the single foundation.

How to play

Cards are dealt in piles of two to three. Cards may be removed from the tableau in sequences of three consecutive ranks. Turning the corner is allowed, so ace can follow king and vice versa.

Sequences are built in a series of three free cells, and are then moved to the foundation once the sequence is complete. The game is won when there is only one card left on the tableau.
