<h1>Alternation</h1>
|
|
<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|
|
<p>Alternation is a solitaire card game which is played using two
|
|
decks of playing cards. Its tableau (or playing area) is similar to
|
|
that of another solitaire game <i>Stonewall</i>.</p>
|
|
<p>Forty-nine cards are set up into seven columns of seven cards
|
|
each. Keep in mind that in each column, the top card, as well as
|
|
the third, fifth cards from the top and the bottom card, are face
|
|
up, while the second, fourth, and sixth cards from the top are face
|
|
down, much like the pattern OXOXOXO.</p>
|
|
<p>The object of the game is to release the Aces as they become
|
|
available and built each of them by suit.</p>
|
|
<p>The top cards of each column are the only ones available for
|
|
play, to be built up by suit on the foundations, or on each other
|
|
down by alternating colors. A sequence or part of a sequence can be
|
|
moved as a unit.</p>
|
|
<p>When no more cards can be moved, the stock (the remaining cards)
|
|
is dealt one card at a time. A card that cannot be built on the
|
|
tableau or on the foundations is placed on the waste pile, the top
|
|
card of which is available for play.</p>
|
|
<p>The game ends soon after the entire stock has run out. The game
|
|
is won when all cards are built onto the foundations.</p>
