The object
Build four stacks of cards, one for each suit, in ascending order, from ace to king.
The table
Solitaire is played with a single deck of 52 cards. The game begins with 28 cards arranged into seven columns. The first column contains one card, the second has two cards, and so on. The top card in each column is face up, the rest are face down.
Four Home stacks are positioned at the upper-right corner. This is where you build the piles needed to win.
How to play
Each Home stack must start with an ace. If you don't have any, you'll have to move cards between columns until you uncover one.
You can't move cards between columns at random, however. Columns must be built in descending order, from king to ace. So you can place a 10 on a jack, but not on a 3.
As an added twist, cards in columns must also alternate red and black.
You aren't limited to moving single cards. You can also move sequentially organized runs of cards between columns. Just click the deepest card in the run and drag them all to another column.
If you run out of moves, you'll have to draw more cards by clicking the deck in the upper-left corner. If the deck runs out, click its outline on the table to reshuffle it.
You can move a card to the Home stack either by dragging it or by double-clicking it.
Scoring
In game three types of counting of points:
"standard": for card relocation in the house 10 points, for relocation from a pack in any pile - 5 points, for card discovery in any of piles - 5 points are given, at reset of a card from the house 15 points are lost, at distribution on three cards the player loses on 20 points for each review of a pack since the fourth, at delivery on one card, the player loses on 100 points for each review of a pack, since the second. At game with counting of time the player loses on 2 points for each 10 seconds of game and receives additional points in the end of game. The more shortly game, the more than additional points will receive the player. If a game takes more than 30 seconds, you also receive bonus points based on the time it takes to finish. The bonus formula: 700,000 divided by total game time in seconds. Thus, the highest possible Standard score is 24,113!
on system "Vegas": in the beginning the debt of the player makes 52 dollars, in the house the player receives 5 dollars for card relocation, the game purpose consists in achieving the positive balance, at delivery on three cards, a pack can be viewed three times, at delivery on one card, the pack can be viewed only once.
it is not conducted in the beginning of game the zero account, game goes both with included, and with the out-of-operation timer, the purpose consists in playing all cards. Thus the account isn't conducted and irrespective of number of handed over cards (on three or on one) the pack can be viewed any number of times.
