A collection of solitaire card games.

Playing a game of gold mine

FreeCell

• http://politaire.com/help/freecell

• The goal is to move all the cards to the foundation.

• The cards need to be sent to the foundation in ascending order (ace, 2, 3, etc) in stacks of the same suit.

• Any card can be sent to one of the four cells available (top-left).

• A cell can only hold one card at a time.

• All cards are dealt into the tableau in eight piles.

• Cards can be combined in the tableau in descending order, and off opposite color.

• Empty spaces in the tableau can receive any card.

Gold Mine

You can read about the game here http://politaire.com/help/goldmine.

• The game starts with all the cards in the stock (top left).
• Clicking on the stock moves 3 cards to the waste (element next to the stock).
• You can then move the last card there to either the tableau of the foundation.
• There's only one pass through the stock, so you need to keep combining the cards until you move through all the cards available.
• You can move any card to an empty tableau (bottom), or move to a stack there if a card is of alternating color and one value lower.
• The goal of the game is to move all the cards to the foundation (top right).
• A card may be moved to a foundation is its either an ace, or a card of the same suit with one higher value.
• So basically, keep combining the cards in the tableau (bottom), try not to use all the available empty tableaus (they are useful to make the combinations).
• As possible, you need to keep filling the foundation as well, starting with the ace and going from there.
• If you manage to move all the cards to the foundation (four stacks from ace to king) then you'll win the game.

• http://politaire.com/help/klondike

• The goal is to move all the cards to the foundation.

• The cards need to be sent to the foundation in ascending order (ace, 2, 3, etc) in stacks of the same suit.
