Two decks, nine columns
Double Klondike
Two decks
Draw: 1 · 3
Goal: build all eight foundations up from Ace to King, each in a single suit.
- Two decks are shuffled together, so every card appears twice and each suit has two foundations.
- Tableau columns build down in alternating colour (e.g. a red 6 on a black 7). Move a single card or a valid run.
- Only face-up cards can be picked up; uncovering a face-down card flips it.
- An empty column can be started with a King (or a run headed by a King).
- Draw from the stock to the waste one or three cards at a time, as the variant says; only the top card of the waste is in play. Recycle the waste back to the stock when it runs out.
- Your score, kept for a win: 10 for each card on the foundations, 5 for each tableau card turned up, and points off for going back through the stock. It never drops below 0.

Klondike's stock, waste and turn-up columns stretched over two decks: eight repeated foundations and a nine-column diagonal deal. This is Double Klondike; the other variants change a line or two. Make a game explains every part of it.
