<h1>Rouge et Noir</h1>
|
|
<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Rouge et Noir (i. e. red and black) is a solitaire card game which is played
|
|
using two decks of playing cards. Invented by Charles Jewell, it is one unique
|
|
game where two types of building are done in the same game. It should not be
|
|
confused with the similarly named Red and Black, although the latter can also
|
|
be known under this name.
|
|
<p>
|
|
In this game, there are ten columns. The first column contains eight cards,
|
|
the second column contains seven cards, the third contains six and so on until
|
|
the eighth and ninth columns each contain one card. The ten column is left
|
|
empty at the start of the game. All cards in each column except for the top
|
|
card are faced down.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The object of the game is to release two red aces and two black aces
|
|
(regardless of suit) to become foundations and built each of them up by color
|
|
to kings, while at the same time built four columns of cards in the tableau,
|
|
each starting with a King and built down by alternating color.
|
|
<p>
|
|
All exposed cards are available for play to be built either on the foundations
|
|
or in the tableau. Building in the tableau is down by alternating color.
|
|
Sequences can be moved in part or in whole and any empty column can be filled
|
|
only by a King or a sequence that begins with a King.
|
|
<p>
|
|
When there are no more moves to be played, one card is placed onto each column
|
|
from the stock; afterwards, play proceeds as normal. This cycle continues
|
|
until the entire stock has run out.
|
|
<p>
|
|
When a sequence that starts with a King, ends with an Ace, and is built down
|
|
in alternating colors is formed, it may be discarded at the player's
|
|
discretion.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The game ends when soon after the stock has run out. The game is won when 52
|
|
cards are built onto the four foundations while four King sequences are
|
|
discarded.
|
|
<p>
|
|
In winning such a game, the player must decide which cards should be built one
|
|
at a time into the four foundations and which must be built into
|
|
King-foundations which should be discarded later. As a suggestion, the player
|
|
should do neither to help cleaning up a column later. It also helps when the
|
|
player should not touch a completed column of thirteen cards to aid in
|
|
splitting and reach the faced down cards. It is also good to focus on
|
|
releasing the face down cards on the leftmost columns, especially the first
|
|
three ones.
