How to play

You complete Rosamund's Bower when every card reaches the foundation target while the profile's access, packet, and sequence restrictions remain satisfied. The engine evaluates the full position rather than relying on a visual shortcut or an unsupported solvability claim.

  • Rosamund's Bower opens from a versioned seeded position built for Eight guards refill from a seven-card hidden reserve around a Queen; a Jack-led descending foundation must absorb every other card before the gated Queen and King can finish, with three waste lanes merged between passes. Its game ID, rules profile, and deal identity are stored together so restart recreates the same opening without a server request.
  • Every Rosamund's Bower action is checked against the current board, available material, and this defining restriction: Eight guards refill from a seven-card hidden reserve around a Queen; a Jack-led descending foundation must absorb every other card before the gated Queen and King can finish, with three waste lanes merged between passes. Invalid, stale, or post-terminal actions leave the position unchanged.

Strategy tips

  • A practical Rosamund's Bower plan is to preserve several legal continuations around Eight guards refill from a seven-card hidden reserve around a Queen; a Jack-led descending foundation must absorb every other card before the gated Queen and King can finish, with three waste lanes merged between passes. Use the deterministic hint to inspect one legal action, then compare how it affects the documented objective before committing.
  • A common Rosamund's Bower error is to ignore the boundary rule that Eight guards refill from a seven-card hidden reserve around a Queen; a Jack-led descending foundation must absorb every other card before the gated Queen and King can finish, with three waste lanes merged between passes. Undo is useful for studying that decision, while restart deliberately preserves the original seeded position.
  • Near the end of Rosamund's Bower, recount the remaining obligations needed until every card reaches the foundation target while the profile's access, packet, and sequence restrictions remain satisfied. Check the boundary rule after every final placement or transfer because terminal status is enforced immediately.
