About La Belle Lucie Solitaire
La Belle Lucie is a fully visible patience game with eighteen fans and only two chances to reshuffle the remaining cards. Build downward in suit on the fans and upward in suit on four foundations. Empty spaces cannot hold a spare card. Saved Undo history, legal hints and conservative Safe Auto support the classic two-redeal rules without a buried-card draw.

How to play
Choose a fan’s exposed end card, then a same-suit card one rank higher or its next foundation slot. Redeal shuffles the cards still in the fans and leaves completed foundation cards in place.
Rules in this version
- Deal seventeen face-up fans of three cards and one fan of a single card.
- Move only exposed end cards. Fan building is downward in suit and an empty fan cannot be filled.
- Build four suit foundations from ace to king.
- Two redeals are available. This edition does not include a merci draw from a buried position.
Tips for playing
- Keep a useful landing card available before emptying its fan: you do not gain reusable space.
- Safe Auto waits for all four foundations to reach the preceding rank. Hints show a legal option rather than proving a deal is solvable.
