<h1>Stonewall</h1>
|
|
<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Stonewall is a solitaire card game using a deck of 52 playing cards. It is
|
|
probably named because the player seems to break down walls as one exposes
|
|
more of the face-down cards. Its tableau is similar to that of Flower Garden
|
|
with its beds as columns.
|
|
<p>
|
|
Thirty-six cards are dealt onto the tableau into six columns of six cards
|
|
each. It should be noted that the exposed (top) card and the third and fifth
|
|
cards from it are faced up while the second, fourth, and sixth cards from the
|
|
top are faced down. The 16 leftover cards act as the reserve.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The object of the game is to move the Aces to the foundations and build each
|
|
of them up by suit.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The top cards of each column, as well as all the cards in the reserve, are
|
|
available for play to the foundations or the tableau. Building on the tableau
|
|
is down by alternating colors and a sequence (or a part of a sequence) can be
|
|
moved as unit. Any gap on the tableau can be filled by any exposed card or any
|
|
sequence.
|
|
<p>
|
|
The game is won when all cards are built onto the foundations. But chances of
|
|
winning are low, especially, for instance, that the needed cards are those
|
|
faced down.
