<h1>Intrigue</h1>
|
|
<h3>From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3>
|
|
<p>Intrigue is a solitaire card game which is played using two
|
|
decks of playing cards. It is similar to another solitaire game of
|
|
<a href="saliclaw.html">Salic Law</a>, but it also involves the
|
|
queens and building in the foundations goes both ways.</p>
|
|
<p>First, one queen is removed from the rest of the deck is placed
|
|
on the layout as the base for the first tableau column.</p>
|
|
<p>As they become available, all fives and sixes are placed at the
|
|
foundations above the queens. The fives are built down to Aces,
|
|
then to Kings while the sixes are built up to Jacks, all regardless
|
|
of suit.</p>
|
|
<p>Over the first queen, the cards are dealt over it until another
|
|
queen appears. This new queen becomes the base for a new tableau
|
|
column and cards are dealt over it. This is repeated until all
|
|
eight queens are uncovered and all cards are deal.</p>
|
|
<p>During the dealing, all fives and sixes are immediately placed
|
|
in the foundations and any card that be built on the foundations
|
|
must be placed there.</p>
|
|
<p>Once all cards are dealt and all those that can be built in the
|
|
foundations make their way there, building continues. The top cards
|
|
of each column is available for play on the foundations. A column
|
|
containing only a queen is considered empty and any card can be
|
|
placed on it. There is no building in the tableau.</p>
|
|
<p>The game is won when all cards are build on the foundations with
|
|
the face cards on top.</p>
|
|
<h3>Variations</h3>
|
|
<p>Below are harder variations of Intrigue:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>In <b>Laggard Lady</b>, the fives and sixes may not be moved
|
|
faster then the queens. Therefore, for example, if there are five
|
|
queens dealt so far, a sixth five or a sixth six must be dealt to
|
|
the tableau.</li>
|
|
<li>In <b>Glencoe</b>, each five and six must be placed over the
|
|
queen of its respective suit. If the appropriate queen is not yet
|
|
available at a time a five or six appears, that five or six must be
|
|
dealt to the tableau.</li>
|
|
</ul>
