# Picture Gallery (Die Bildgallerie)

Picture Gallery type. 2 decks. No redeal.

### Object

Fill the entire Gallery with pictures.

### Rules

The layout consists of three rows of playing piles, a row for newly- dealt cards, and a castoff pile for Aces.

All Aces are cast off to the pile on the right. Use the <A> key. When you clear a space on the tableau, you can only fill it with the right card:

- In the first row, you build up sequences starting with a Four,
- in the second row with a Three, and in the
- third row with a Two.

You build up sequences incrementing by three, up to the face cards. Thus, in the first row, each pile is 4-7-10-King, in the second row 3-6-9-Queen, and in the third row, 2-5-8-Jack. Once a sequence has been started, you have to follow suit.

If you clear a space at the bottom it will get automatically filled with a card from the talon. But if the talon is gone and you clear a space at the bottom, then you can fill it with any card. When no further moves are possible, click on the talon for a fresh row of cards at the bottom.

You win when the entire Gallery is filled with pictures, that is, face cards.

### Strategy

Because of the many piles involved the Picture Gallery requires some concentration, but it is not too hard to win.
