Play guide

Before you play

• Seven columns receive one through seven cards, with only each final card face up.
• Tableau builds downward in alternating colors; foundations build A–K in one suit.
• Only a King or a valid King-led sequence enters an empty column.
• Draw one card; recycle the waste when the stock is empty, with no pass limit.
• Win by moving all 52 cards to foundations. Returning foundation cards to the tableau is not supported.

Playing a hand

1. Select a face-up card or sequence, then a receiving column.
2. Exposed face-down cards turn over automatically.
3. Draw when needed; only the top waste card is available.
4. Build foundations from Aces, checking what automatic collection moves.

Look beneath the move

Red seven and black six can move together onto black eight, but not red eight. Prefer moves that expose a hidden card when both choices preserve useful routes.

An empty column is not general storage. Moving a waste King there can unlock access to the card beneath it.

Auto collection is not a solver

Automatic collection moves currently eligible cards to foundations without proving that the remaining deal is solvable. Moving a low card too early may remove a useful tableau destination.

Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. If a complete stock pass produces no useful change, use undo to explore a different branch or start another deal.
