FoundationTableauStock

Goal: move every card to the four foundations.

  • The foundations start with the four Aces and build up by colour to King: red on red, black on black, whatever the suit.
  • Play the face-up stock card straight to a foundation or park it on one of four holding piles.
  • Holding piles accept stock cards in any order, but only their top card can leave, and only for a foundation.
  • When the stock runs out, tap it once to pick the holding piles up in order as a new stock.
  • Your score is the number of cards on the foundations, 52 for a win.
