About Australian Patience

Australian Patience deals 28 face-up cards into seven columns and keeps 24 cards in a stock with no redeal. Move an exposed tableau card with its whole unordered group, building down in suit. Only the top waste card is available. A dealt-card chooser, automatic legal foundation moves and saved Undo history support the classic rules without revealing the stock.

How to play

Draw one card at a time. Play the top waste card or a tableau card with every card below it onto a card one rank higher of the same suit. Empty columns require kings. Build four suit foundations from ace to king.

Rules in this version

Deal four face-up cards to each of seven columns, leaving 24 stock cards.
Draw one at a time with no stock recycling. Only the top waste card can play.
An unordered tableau group can move if its starting card fits a destination one rank higher of the same suit.
Only king-led groups fill empty columns. An empty foundation accepts any ace and then builds that ace’s suit through king.

Tips for playing

Check whether the waste card can move before drawing again: the next card covers it.
Free a king when it gives you useful space. Choose card lists dealt cards and never exposes the stock.
