How to play
Place all 104 cards into the sixteen role-specific suited foundations.
- Four suited Queen destinations are preseeded, twelve other foundations begin empty, one waste card is exposed, and the remaining ninety-nine cards form the stock; there is no tableau or reserve.
- Only the exposed waste card can move. Four suited foundations rise from Ace, four single-card slots take the remaining Queens, four take Jacks, and four suited foundations descend from Ten through wrap for eleven cards. Draw singly and recycle the waste at most twice.
- Place all 104 cards into the sixteen role-specific suited foundations.
Strategy tips
- Identify a waste card's exact role before drawing over it, and advance the long Ace-up and Ten-down sequences evenly so both copies of crowded ranks retain legal destinations.
- Queens and Jacks have dedicated one-card slots, while a Ten-down foundation follows a different sequence; sending a picture card to the wrong structure is illegal.
- Treat the final pass as a fixed queue and play every available role card immediately, especially isolated Jacks and Queens with no alternate holding area.
