Build up in suit from Ace to King (for example, a 2 [image] can be played on an Ace [image]).

Cells (or Reserve; 4 cells, top left)

Gaps (game) rules
Gaps	       Games of SolSuite 2002

1 deck (52 cards); 2 redeals

  About this game     [image]  Similar games     [image]  Autoplay     [image]  Strategy

	Low (about 1 in 20)
Object of the game:	To create four suit sequences of 12 cards from Two to King.

The entire stock is dealt in four rows of 13 cards each. Then the four Aces are removed, creating four gaps in the layout.

Tableau (4 rows of 12 cards each)

A gap (four in all) must be filled with the card that is the next highest in rank and of the same suit as the card to the left of the gap. (For example: if a gap opens up to the right of the 10 [image], it must be filled with the Jack [image]; the gap and the Jack [image] will exchange places).

A gap in the first space of a row may be filled with any Two. The player decides which row he will allocate to each suit.

Because a King is the highest-ranking card, a gap after a King cannot be filled and action is blocked.

Stock

After all possible plays have been made (when the Kings block any action), click the Redeal button.

Redeals are performed as follows:

   Any Two and the suit sequences starting with them are left in place.

   All other cards that are out of sequence are removed, shuffled and then dealt to complete the rows.

   A gap is left to the immediate right of the cards that are in suit sequence in each row (if the only card in place is a Two, a gap is left to the right of it).

   If there is no Two in a row, a gap is left in the first place of the row, so that a Two can be moved there.

Two redeals are permitted (three deals in all).


About Gaps solitaire
Gaps alternate names

Gaps (game) strategy
 Gaps strategy

Don't randomly start moving the cards. Study the tableau and try to open a gap at the extreme left of the row, at the right of a blocked card or move Kings away from the gaps to avoid blocking the game.


Grandfather's Clock (game) rules
Grandfather's Clock	       Games of SolSuite 2002

1 deck (52 cards); no redeal

  About this game     [image]  Similar games     [image]  Autoplay     [image]  Strategy

	Very high (about 3 in 4)
Object of the game:	To move all the cards to the foundations (the "Clock").

Foundations (12 piles: the "Clock". Complete these piles to win the game)

Build up in suit from the base card until the top card of each foundation shows the number corresponding to its position on a clock face (the "hour" in a clock in that position). For example, the 3 [image] at the bottom would build up to the 6 [image] (6 o'clock).

Jack equals 11 o'clock and Queen equals 12 o'clock.

Ranking of cards is continuous: build Aces after Kings when necessary.

All the piles will require 3 cards, except the Ten, Jack, Queen and King, which will require 4 cards each.

Tableau (8 columns of 5 cards each)

Build down regardless of suit (for example, a 5 [image] can be played on a 6 [image] [image] [image] [image]).

The top card of each pile is available for play to another tableau pile or to the foundations.

	Very high (about 2 in 3)
Object of the game:	To create on the tableau 8 descending sequences of 13 cards from King to Ace.

Foundations

The top card of each pile is available for play to another tableau pile.

Cards in a descending sequence may be moved as a unit in whole or in part to another pile.

Nothing can be placed on an Ace (a King cannot move, except to an empty space).

	Medium (about 1 in 5)
Object of the game:	To create on the tableau 8 descending sequences of 13 cards from King to Ace.

Tableau (10 columns)

Build down regardless of suit (for example, a 5 [image] can be played on a 6 [image] [image] [image] [image]).

The top card of each pile is available for play to another tableau pile.

Cards of the same suit and in a descending sequence may be moved as a unit in whole or in part to another pile (groups of cards not of the same suit cannot be moved).

Nothing can be placed on an Ace (a King cannot move, except to an empty space).

Spaces may be filled with any available card or packed sequence.
