Object

Move all cards to the foundations.

Rules

The layout from top left consists of the talon, the waste and the foundations. Below these on the left is one or more reserves and on the right are the rows. Foundations build up in rank and suit, the rows build down in rank, in rank and alternate colors or in rank and suit. Foundation cards are out of play unless specified.

These games are variations of the game Canfield originally submitted to PySol by Drew Csillag and use row stacks adapted from that game. Read the Canfield help file for more information.

    Object
    Probably to move all cards to the foundations, but maybe not.
    Rules
    There's no documentation and the game logic doesn't seem to make any sense. The King and Queen stacks are basic reverve stacks which only accept a single card from the waste. When a row stack is emptied, any card on a reserve stack will be chosen first to fill it. Huh?
