Game Play
Deal
A standard 52 card deck is dealt to the tableau, with each of the 13 stacks containing 4 cards.
Playing
Tableau
Build down in descending order without regard to color or suit.
You can only move one card at a time.
Only Kings can be moved to empty piles on the tableau.
Foundations
Build the 4 suited foundations in ascending order starting with the Aces.
Strategy
Since only Kings can be moved to an open spot on the tableau it does not make sense to condense down large runs of cards into fewer piles.
Since you can only move one card at a time leaving a variety of partially completed mini stacks that overlap makes it easier to move cards across stacks.
Try to surface the Aces early in the game so you can move cards to the foundations as you play.
Levels
This is a single level game.
Players have 12 minutes to move all 52 cards to the foundations.
Scoring
Each card you move to a foundation is worth 50 points, for a maximum card-based score of 2,600.
Each second you have remaining when you complete the game is worth 15 points.
Target Audience
The game is suited for players who like Solitaire card games.
The game has no adult themed content.
