Akbar's Conquest
Braid type. Two decks. Two redeals.
Object
Move all cards to the Foundations.
Quick description
Similar to Braid played with two Mughal
Ganjifa decks.
Rules
Game play is like Braid. In this variation there are two Braid
stacks that each have their own set of Braid reserve stacks. The
game lay out starts with the sixteen foundations in the outer most
columns. The next two columns inwards are the eight Braid reserves.
Then there are two columns with four general reserves each. The
inner most two columns are the two Braid stacks. Each Braid starts
with sixteen cards. When one of the Braid reserves becomes open the
card at the top of the corresponding Braid will be moved there.
When all the cards from one of the Braids are removed a card from
the other Braid will be used.
The game is named after the reputed inventor of a twelve suited
Ganjifa deck of singular splendor. It was engraved on ivory and
hand painted by court artisans. No cards from this pack are known
to still exist.
Strategy
Build sequences on the rows that will play when the correct card
turns over from the talon. This game type requires careful strategy
to win.
