3.75.3. Regras
Cards in the Tableau are built down in sequence by alternating colours building round the corner. Groups of cards can't be moved. An empty pile in the Tableau must be filled by the top card in Waste or the next card from the Stock. Top cards can be moved to the Foundation or other Tableau piles.
Foundations are built up in sequence by alternating colours from the base card. Empty Foundations must be filled with the base card that is selected by the user from four random cards as the first move. Cards in Foundations are out of play.
Top card of the Reserve is in play and can only be moved to Foundations.
Cards are flipped from the Stock to the Waste individually as many times as you like unless there is a space in the tableau. If there is a space in the tableau then only one card may be flipped from the stock to the waste until the tableau is filled or the top card of the waste is moved to the foundation or tableau. While the stock is locked you can still move cards around on the tableau, from the reserve and to the foundation. If the Waste is empty a card from the Stock is automatically dealt. Top card in Waste is in play. Stock cannot be turned.
Double clicking on a card will move it to the appropriate Foundation pile if such a move is possible.

3.75.6. Estratégia
When the game starts examine the Reserve carefully before choosing your base card, avoid base cards that have several buried in the Reserve.
Watch for reversed sequences in the Stock, Reserve a Foundation to remove each reversed sequence.
Try to start Tableau piles from the last card needed to complete a Foundation.
Remember that you can continue to flip cards from the stock while it is locked without filling the tableau by using the top card of the waste.
