Rules
Solitaire Games includes three
different variations of Klondike.
Standard Rules
Build columns in descending order
in alternating colors. Blocks of cards in descending order and alternating
colors are moved as a group. If a column is empty, you may start a new
column with a King. Foundations are started with Aces, and built in suit
to Kings. Klondike also has a deck of cards. Tap on the deck to deal three
cards at a time to single discard pile. You may play the top card of the
discard pile as normal. Once the entire deck has been dealt, the discard
pile it turned over and becomes the deck. You can go through the deck unlimited
times.
Alternate Rules
The alternate rules make the game
easier by dealing one card at a time instead of three. Tap the silk screen
Menu button and choose Settings to set Klondike to deal one or three cards
at once.
Vegas Rules
The Vegas Rules are the strictest
rules for Klondike. You play dealing three cards at a time, but you can
only deal through the deck three times. The scoring is different as well,
as described below.
Standard and Alternate Rules
Scoring
You receive 25 points for every
card that you place on a foundation, and 15 points for every card that
is moved from the discard pile to a column.
Vegas Scoring
You begin the game with -$52. Every
card that you place on a foundation gives you $4. Solving Klondike will
net you $156.
