- HOW TO PLAY TREASURE COVE SOLITAIRE
-
- There are many variations of the game of Solitaire,
- Treasure Trove Solitaire is one variation.
-
- Each game round starts with four piles of four cards each,
- in a row at the top. These cards form the reserve.
-
- One card is dealt below the reserve pile, this forms the
- first foundation card. Other cards of the same rank are
- placed to the right of the first, as they become available.
-
- Cards of the same suit as the foundation cards are placed
- below the foundation card. On each foundation to the
- right, a card may be built only if a card of the same
- rank has been built on the foundation to the left of it.
-
- Top cards of the reserve piles are available for play on
- the foundations. Cards from the deck are dealt three at
- a time, and the top card of the stock pile is available
- for play. Cards can be redealt without limit until the
- game is blocked, or is won by getting the entire deck
- onto the foundations.
