There are 10 Tableau piles with initially 4 cards in each pile making up the forty thieves. The Tableau is built upon a descending sequence King to Ace of the same suit, instead of alternating color.

Any card may fill an empty space. There are 8 Foundations and, like basic Solitaire, the game is won when all cards are transferred to the Foundations in ascending order in separated suits.

Yukon is a Solitaire game that uses a traditional 52 deck of playing cards. In Yukon, there are no Stock or Talon piles. All 52 cards are used to make up a 7 pile Tableau at the start of the game.

To set up a Yukon game, the player first makes a traditional 7 pile Tableau. Then piles receive an additional 5 cards, all faced up.

The first 4 piles have 7 cards each while the last 4 piles have 6 cards each. All cards are faced up.

Instead of Stock and Talon piles, there are 4 empty storage piles. The player may place any one card in each pile at their own strategic discretion.

The player may only move one card at a time in FreeCell, causing many games to last longer than expected.

The sequencing objective of the Tableau and the Foundations remains similar to traditional Solitaire. Emperor is one of the most time consuming solitaire games out there and is very similar to Spider.

Emperor is played with two standard playing card decks. The first 3 cards in the column are faced down while the 4th card in each column is faced up.

Streets and Alleys, or Beleaguered Castle, is a solitaire game similar to Freecell. To set up Streets and Alleys, the four Aces are placed vertically in the gameplay area to form four rows or foundations.

Only the top card in each tableau can be played. Players may build up incrementally the Foundations with cards of the same suit as the first Ace.

Players may also move cards within the tableau as long as the moved card is a rank lower than the card it is being moved to.

Cards within the tableau are not restricted to alternating suit Color. In Accordion, all 52 cards are placed individually faced up on the gameplay area.

Rows are formed whenever the player wished to create them or when space requires it. The player makes as much moves as possible with the objective being to stack up the entire deck.

To set up a game of Bowling Solitaire, the player sits around a stable playing area and shuffles the deck. Bowling Solitaire requires a deck with no face cards, Aces through 10s only.

The other six piles each contain one more card than the previous pile. Each top card is revealed. Here, you can move cards from pile to pile. After removing all revealed cards from a pile, the new top card is revealed and thereby accessible for you: Only revealed cards can be moved to the foundation.

In order to move and thereby reveal cards in the tableau, you must sort them. You can also add cards from the waste to the tableau. There are specific rules for sorting the cards in the tableau :.

Cards are moved from the tableau to the foundation individually. If Aces are revealed at the very beginning, you can move them to the foundation right away!

If you run out of options in the tableau, you can either undo one or more actions or draw one or more cards from the stock to the waste. Undoing can come in handy when you placed a card onto the wrong tableau pile or change your plan in hindsight.

To make the game more challenging, you can also deactivate this option using our custom rule Undo Off. After drawing a card from the stock , you get to move it from the waste to the tableau if it fits there.

Once the stock is empty, the waste becomes the stock again. Playing with the basic rules, you can draw as many cards as you want.

But you can only move the top card of the waste. Every move you make counts — literally. You gain or lose certain amounts of points for specific actions.

Certain custom rules and playing in multiplayer mode affect the scoring. See the chart below the image for details. Each player receives their gained points up to this moment as their round score.

At a table at the Solitaire Palace, you can play several rounds, therefore collecting points continuously.

Cards and Playing Field Klondike Solitaire uses one standard deck of, traditionally French-suited, playing cards. The Aim In a round of Klondike Solitaire, you want all cards to end up in four piles in the foundation, each in one suit only.

Stock and Waste After filling the tableau at the beginning of a round, 24 cards remain face down in the top left of the playing field as the stock.

Foundation The four foundation piles on the top right of the playing field are empty at the beginning of the game.

The following rules apply: Each pile can only contain one suit. The ranks of each pile must be placed there in ascending order : The first card placed there is Ace.

The pile continues up 2, 3 … 10, Jack, Queen, and King on the top. Tableau At the beginning of a round, 28 cards are dealt to the tableau: The first of seven piles in the middle of the table contains one card.

There are specific rules for sorting the cards in the tableau : You must sort the cards in descending order , starting with the King at the bottom, continuing Queen, Jack, 10, 9 … 2, and Ace on top.

You can start sorting downwards with any card. For example, you can attach a black Queen to a red King, or a red Three to a black Four.

Whenever you expose a face-down card in one of the piles, you must flip it face-up and play it, if possible. When a pile runs out of cards, a King and all attached cards can be moved to the vacant space, opening up another face-down card to be flipped and played.

Once you have run out of moves, you can begin looking through your stock pile. Draw three cards at a time and fan them out on an empty space on the table.

The top card in this pile is the one you can play, with subsequent cards in the pile becoming playable when the top card is used.

If none of the cards in the pile can be played, draw three more and pile them on top, trying to make a play from the top card.

Continue in this fashion as necessary until the stockpile is depleted, then turn the stockpile over to use again.

The game ends when either all cards have been added to the foundation row, or you run out of playable moves.
