Solitaire Card Game (Klondike)

Klondike is known as solitaire, being one of the better known of the family of patience games.
Klondike is played with a standard 52-card deck, without Jokers. After shuffling, seven piles of cards are laid from left to right. Each pile begins with one upturned card. From left to right, each pile contains one more card than the last. The first and left-most pile contains a single upturned card, the second pile contains two cards (one downturned, one upturned), the third contains three (two downturned, one upturned), and so on, until the seventh pile which contains seven cards (six downturned, one upturned). The piles should look like the figure to the right at the beginning of every game.

The four foundations (light rectangles in the upper right of the figure) are built up by suit from Ace (low in this game) to King, and the tableau piles can be built down by alternate colors, and partial or complete piles can be moved if they are built down by alternate colors also. Any empty piles can be filled with a King or a pile of cards with a King. The aim of the game is to build up a stack of cards starting with two and ending with King, all of the same suit. Once this is accomplished, the goal is to move this to a foundation, where the player has previously placed the Ace of that suit. Once the player has done this, they will have "finished" that suit, the goal being to finish all suits, at which time the player would have won. There are different ways of dealing the remainder of the deck:

The goal is to move all cards to the four foundations on the upper right.

- Turning and Moving
Click the stock (on the upper left) to turn over cards onto the waste pile.
Drag cards to move them between the waste pile, the seven tableau columns, and the four foundations. You can also double-click cards instead of dragging them to a foundation. You may move single cards or piles of cards within the tableau. You may only move cards off the waste pile, but you may onto and off the foundations. Any time you expose a face-down card in a tableau column, that card is automatically turned face-up for you.

The Foundations are ordered by suit and rank, each Foundation has one suit and you must put the cards onto them in the order Ace 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Jack Queen King. To get there, you can use the moves described below.

- Allowed moves
Flip cards from the Stock onto the Waste. You can flip either 1 or 3 cards from the Stock onto the Waste. The number can be configured in Options. Move a card from the Waste onto the Foundations. If the top card of the Waste can go onto one of the Foundations then you can drag it there. Move a card from the Waste onto the Tableau. You can move the top card of the Waste onto one of the Tableau piles. Move a card from a Foundation back onto the Tableau. You can move the top card of a Foundation back onto the Tableau. This isn't allowed in all Sotaire versions, but we allow it here. Move one or more cards from one Tableau pile to another. You can move a face up card on the Tableau onto another Tableau pile, if that pile's top card is one higher than the moved card and in a different color. You can move a Tableau card onto the Foundations. You can do this manually if you need to
clear some space on the Tableau. You can either drag the cards onto the Foundation, or just double click it and then it will got there by itself. When all cards on the Tableau are turned up, and all cards from the stock are finished then the game will automatically move all the Tableau cards onto the Foundations, since at that point you are guaranteed to win the game.

- Time and Moves
The game counts the moves you make, and measures the time it takes to finish the game, so you can compete against your previous best games
