    Fill Byte stacks by matching the goal card's byte value, fill bit stacks by matching the corresponding bit value.
    Rules
    When play begins the four left most columns are filled with four goal cards of different ranks, one from each suit. The next two columns to the right are the byte stacks. They can be filled with cards of the same rank as the goal card in that row. The four or five right most columns are the bit stacks. They can be filled with cards of the same suit as the goal card in the respective row if their least significant bit matches the corresponding bit on the goal card. Cards from the talon are turned over to the waste pile, two at a time. There is only one redeal. The only function of the Wizards in this game is to block the waste stack at the worst possible time.

    Strategy
    The Wizards will not play to their foundation until all the suit cards are on theirs. That can make the end game a bit of a puzzle. Use an empty row to move them out of the way.

    Game play is like     Klondike with the Wizards being wild. They can be played on the tableaux as any rank or color. Once a Wizard is played on a row however that row may become unmovable. The Wizards have ranks like the suit cards corresponding to Ace through four. If a Wizard is played in it's proper rank position the row can still be moved. The rank can be determined comparing some distinctive element of the images. The first rank Wizard will be the most elaborate in some way such as the fattest, the tallest hat etc. A stack with two Wizards can be moved only if they are both in their rank position and they are not adjacent to each other. Cards are dealt from the talon one at a time. Only Kings may be played on an empty row. The Wizards may be played to the foundation at any time in their proper rank order. Cards may be played from the foundations.
    Strategy

    Waste talon, 2 redeals
    Waste
    Object
    Move all suit cards to the Foundations.
    Rules
    Game play is like     Braid. In the Hex A Deck variation the Wizards don't have their own foundations. There are two reserve stacks to the left of the foundations that will hold up to three Wizards each. The game is won when all the suit cards have been moved to the foundations.
    Strategy
    Build sequences on the rows that will play when the correct card turns over from the talon. Don't fill the Wizard stacks until you need to.
  28. Phantasia:


    29. Tableaux
    20 Phantasmagoria rows, base rank any
    Initial deal talon, no redeals
    Object
    Sort the cards on the tableaux.
    Rules
    Like     Phantasmagoria but one card of each rank is shuffled out and dealt to it's proper place on the tableaux. These cards can not be moved so the Wizards will finish on the bottom row stacks.
  29. Phantasmagoria:


    30. Tableaux
    20 Phantasmagoria rows, base rank any
    Initial deal talon, no redeals
    Object
    Sort the cards on the tableaux.
    Quick description
    Sort the cards by rank, four cards per stack with the Wizards alone on four of the stacks.
    Rules
    Play starts with all cards dealt to the tableaux. The four Wizards are dealt one each on the lower four stacks, the other cards, four each on the upper sixteen stacks. No more than four cards plus one Wizard will play on a stack. The Wizards will only play on a stack that has zero or four cards. If the stack has four cards that are in order, the Wizard will change it's rank when dropped. It will return to it's original row if the rank doesn't match the row it's dropped on. Since the Wizards are mathematicians of a very high order, they will not respond to right clicks. They can also be somewhat stubborn about moving to an ordered stack.
    Strategy
    Start by moving one of the Wizards to another row to make an open stack. Once a Wizard has been coerced to stop on a sequenced stack, don't move it until all the rows are in sequence. Try to move cards in such a way as to keep an open row.
  30. Snakestone:


    31. Tableaux

    Like     Snake with the Hex A Deck Variations and the number of cards you can move as a sequence is not restricted.
    Rules
    All cards are dealt to 9 piles at the start of the game, each King or "Ten" (hexadecimal) starting a new pile. Rows build down in rank and suit. The Wizards will play as any color. Empty rows cannot be filled.

    Rules
    Game play is like     Klondike. The rows build down in rank in alternate color. The color of the Wizards is the alternate of either red or black. Only the Tens (top rank cards) may be played on an empty row. There is one reserve stack that will hold up to three Wizards. No suit cards can be played there. The Wizards will also play in their proper rank position on the tableaux. They play as the alternate of either red or black. Cards are dealt from the talon one at a time. Cards may be played from the foundations.
    Strategy
    Use caution when playing the Wizards on the reserve stack. If you play a lower rank Wizard on top of a higher rank one, you will have to move it off before the high rank one will play to the foundation.
