Rules for Steve Solitaire

Description:

A two-deck Klondike variant where we build regardless of suit, but can only move same-suit sequences.

Cards:

Two standard decks. Since colors don't matter, politaire substitutes a four-color deck of cards..

Goal:

Move all cards to the foundation.

Foundation:

Eight foundation piles.

Any ace may be moved to any empty pile in the foundation.

A card may be added onto a foundation pile if it is one higher than the old top card of the pile and of the same suit.Thus, the only card that could be played on a 7♣ would be an 8♣. No pile may contain more than 13 cards.

Once on the foundation, cards may not be moved back off..

Tableau:

Eight tableau piles with one card in the first pile, two cards in the second, three in the third, and so on. All cards are dealt face up.

A card may be added onto a tableau pile if it is one lower than the old top card of the pile and of any suit.Thus, the card that could be played on a seven would be a six of any suit.

Cards on the tableau that are not under another card are available for play onto the foundation or any other tableau pile.

Empty spaces in the tableau may be filled by any card.

Groups of cards in sequence down may be moved from one tableau column to another if all cards are of the same suit.

Stock:

The remaining cards form the stock.

Each time you click on the stock, a card will be dealt on top of each tableau pile.

Thomas Warfield's blend of Spider with a Klondike ends up looking a lot like Spiderette except that cards can be moved singly to the foundation.
