The aim and objectives of the solitaire game cards
One of the objectives of the games is to release and play into a certain position cards will build up a foundation, in sequence and in suit from the ace through to the King. The major aim is to build up all the packs onto the certain foundation and if that is done successfully then the solitaire game is won.
How to play solitaire game cards?
The first array may be changed by “building” – transferring cards between the face-up cards in the tableau. Some of the cards in the tableau can be played at once, while others may not be played until certain blocking cards are wiped. For instance, among the seven cards facing up in the tableau, if one is a nine and another is a ten, you may transfer the nine to the head of the ten to start constructing that pile in suitable sequence. Since you have moved the nine from one of the seven piles, then, it means you have now unblocked a face down card; this card can be turned over and now is in play.
As you transfer cards in the tableau and begin building the sequences, if you uncover an ace, the ace have to be placed in one of the foundation piles. The construction of the bases is done by suit and in a peculiar arrangement from ace to king.
Continue to transfer cards on top of each other in the tableau in sequence just like that. If you can’t move any more face up cards, you can use the stock pile by flipping over the first card. Solitaire can be played in representations or bottoms. If you find it difficult to play the card in the tableau or the foundations piles, move the card to the waste pile and turn over another card in the stock pile.
If the emptiness in the tableau is created by the wiping of the cards elsewhere it is called a “space”, and it is of major importance in manipulating the tableau. Only a king can fill the vacant space. Filling a space with a king could unblock one of the face down cards in another pile in the tableau.
Just Continue with the transfer of the cards in the tableau and bring them into play from the stock pile until the cards are built in suit sequences in the foundation piles to win!
