SOLITAIRE
Try this classic card game all by yourself. Your
goal: to pile up all your cards by suit. To start,
you have six card stacks. To play, you must
place black cards on gray ones (and vice
versa) in descending order from 10 to Ace.
Move cards from one stack to another and turn
over the top card that’s faced down. When you
have an empty stack, you can start a new one
by moving a ten over to it. To start building on
the suit piles, place cards with matching suits
in order from Aces to 10s. The game is over
when you have successfully sorted cards by
each suit or when you can no longer play your
cards.
