<h1>Intelligence</h1>
|
|
<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|
|
<p>Intelligence is a solitaire card game which uses two decks of
|
|
playing cards mixed together. It is basically a two-deck version of
|
|
another solitaire game La Belle Lucie and its game play is somewhat
|
|
closer to the parent game than its cousins House in the Wood and
|
|
House on the Hill.</p>
|
|
<p>First, 18 piles (or fans) of three cards are dealt. During this
|
|
deal any ace encountered regardless of where it would end up in the
|
|
pile will be moved to a foundation and be replaced with another
|
|
card. As they become available, the other aces are placed on the
|
|
foundations, which are all built up by suit.</p>
|
|
<p>The top cards of the piles are available to be built on the
|
|
foundations or on each other's piles on the tableau. When building
|
|
on the tableau, the cards are built either up or down by suit. Aces
|
|
cannot be placed over kings, however, and vice versa.</p>
|
|
<p>When a gap occurs, it is immediately filled by three new cards
|
|
from the stock. This is the only way cards from the stock are
|
|
introduced from the game and the only way spaces are refilled. As
|
|
in the original deal, any ace that comes up is immediately placed
|
|
on the foundations.</p>
|
|
<p>When all moves have been made and become stuck, even if there
|
|
are still cards in the stock, the stock and all the cards in the
|
|
tableau are gathered, reshuffled, and 18 piles of three cards each
|
|
are redealt, or as many piles of three cards as the remaining ones
|
|
can allow. This can be done twice and during both redeals as in the
|
|
original deal, any aces the player encounters are immediately
|
|
placed onto the foundations.</p>
|
|
<p>The game is won when all cards end up in the foundations.</p>
|
|
<p>Sloane Lee and Gabriel Packard's version of the game (in the
|
|
book <i>100 Best Solitaire Games</i>) slightly increased the number
|
|
of tableau piles to 19 because they think this improves the
|
|
game.</p>
