        Deal
        This is a standard single-deck Klondike Solitaire game where 28 cards are dealt to the tableau across 7 columns and the other 24 cards are dealt to the reserves.
        The first column on the tableau has a single card in it & each subsequent column has one more card than the prior column.
        The bottom card of each column on the tableau is face up with the remaining cards being dealt face down.
        Playing
        At the start of the game you can choose between turn 1 and turn 3.
        Turn 1 is easier as you see & can potentially play every card from the reserves on each shuffle, whereas on turn 3 some cards can get stuck in between the sets of 3.
        Basics
        This game is single-level, is not timed, & does not have points.
        Tableau
        Build down in descending order while alternating suit colors.
        You can only move Kings or runs of cards starting with a King to an empty column on the tableau.
        Reserves
        You can shuffle through the reserves an unlimited number of times.
        Cards from the reserves can be played to the tableau or directly to the foundations.
        Foundations
        Suited foundations are built in ascending order starting with the Aces.
        Strategy
        Play order
        Typically it makes sense to try to clear out the tallest stacks with the most face down cards first so you don’t have to make many sequential moves from a single stack late in the game.
        The exception to this rule would be making an empty column where you can move a run of cards with a King to, or another similar play where making one play allows a series of follow on plays.
        You can take advantage of the undo move button if you are undecided about which of two moves to make.
        Reserves vs tableau
        In most cases it makes sense to play cards from the tableau over cards from the reserves, especially if you are playing a turn 1 game.
        If you are playing a turn 3 game and a key card is stuck under another card it can make sense to play from the reserves to unlock that card which was stuck between shuffles.
        Target Audience
        The game is suited for players who like Klondike Solitaire card games.
        The game has no adult themed content.
