Rules
Many Solitaire games can be played on areas smaller than a card table. Others require a larger playing area, and these games are often played on the floor or on a bedspread. Alternatively, in order to play with large layouts on a card table, miniature playing cards are available. These are usually half the size of standard playing cards.
The Pack
Virtually all Solitaire games are played with one or more standard 52-card packs. Standard Solitaire uses one 52-card pack.
Object of the Game
The first objective is to release and play into position certain cards to build up each foundation, in sequence and in suit, from the ace through the king. The ultimate objective is to build the whole pack onto the foundations, and if that can be done, the Solitaire game is won.
Rank of Cards
The rank of cards in Solitaire games is: K (high), Q, J, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, A (low).
The Deal
There are four different types of piles in Solitaire:
The Tableau: Seven piles that make up the main table.
The Foundations: Four piles on which a whole suit or sequence must be built up. In most Solitaire games, the four aces are the bottom card or base of the foundations. The foundation piles are hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs.
The Stock (or “Hand”) Pile: If the entire pack is not laid out in a tableau at the beginning of a game, the remaining cards form the stock pile from which additional cards are brought into play according to the rules.
The Talon (or “Waste”) Pile: Cards from the stock pile that have no place in the tableau or on foundations are laid face up in the waste pile.
To form the tableau, seven piles need to be created. Starting from left to right, place the first card face up to make the first pile, deal one card face down for the next six piles. Starting again from left to right, place one card face up on the second pile and deal one card face down on piles three through seven. Starting again from left to right, place one card face up on the third pile and deal one card face down on piles four through seven. Continue this pattern until pile seven has one card facing up on top of a pile of six cards facing down.
The remaining cards form the stock (or “hand”) pile and are placed above the tableau.
When starting out, the foundations and waste pile do not have any cards.
The Play
The initial array may be changed by "building" - transferring cards among the face-up cards in the tableau. Certain cards of the tableau can be played at once, while others may not be played until certain blocking cards are removed. For example, of the seven cards facing up in the tableau, if one is a nine and another is a ten, you may transfer the nine to on top of the ten to begin building that pile in sequence. Since you have moved the nine from one of the seven piles, 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 sequences, if you uncover an ace, the ace should be placed in one of the foundation piles. The foundations get built by suit and in sequence from ace to king.
Continue to transfer cards on top of each other in the tableau in sequence. If you can’t move any more face up cards, you can utilize the stock pile by flipping over the first card. This card can be played in the foundations or tableau. If you cannot 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 a vacancy in the tableau is created by the removal of cards elsewhere it is called a “space”, and it is of major importance in manipulating the tableau. If a space is created, it can only be filled in with a king. Filling a space with a king could potentially unblock one of the face down cards in another pile in the tableau.
Continue to transfer cards in the tableau and bring cards into play from the stock pile until all the cards are built in suit sequences in the foundation piles to win!
Info
Patience, or solitaire as it is known in the US and Canada, is a genre of card games that can be played by a single player. Patience games can also be played in a head-to-head fashion with the winner selected by a scoring scheme.
In the US, the term solitaire is often used specifically to refer to solitaire with cards, while in other countries solitaire specifically refers to peg solitaire. Both Solitaire and Patience are sometimes used to refer specifically to the Klondike form of Patience.
The purpose of Patience generally involves manipulating a layout of cards with a goal of sorting them in some manner. It is possible to play the same games competitively (often a head to head race) and cooperatively.
Patience games typically involve dealing cards from a shuffled deck into a prescribed arrangement on a tabletop, from which the player attempts to reorder the deck by suit and rank through a series of moves transferring cards from one place to another under prescribed restrictions. Some games allow for the reshuffling of the deck(s), and/or the placement of cards into new or "empty" locations. In the most familiar, general form of Patience, the object of the game is to build up four blocks of cards going from ace to king in each suit, taking cards from the layout if they appear on the table.
There is a vast array of variations on the patience theme, using either one or more decks of cards, with rules of varying complexity and skill levels. Many of these have been converted to electronic form and are available as computer games. Examples of variants on the familiar Patience theme that may be played with an ordinary pack of cards include Bisley and Prince Albert. Basic forms of Klondike solitaire and FreeCell come with every version of Microsoft Windows from Windows 3.0 (though FreeCell was introduced in Windows 95) to Windows 7. Ever since the release of Windows 8, Windows Store offers six unique card games which can be downloaded for free from in the form of the Collection. There are also many applications for Android and iOS.
History
The game is most likely German or Scandinavian in origin.[1] The game became popular in France in the early 19th Century reaching England and America in the latter half. The earliest known recording of a game of patience occurred in 1783 in the German game anthology Das neue Königliche L'Hombre-Spiel. Before this, there were no literary mentions of such games in large game compendiums such as Charles Cotton's The Compleat Gamester (1674) and Abbé Bellecour's Academie des Jeux (1674).
Patience was first mentioned in literature shortly after cartomantic layouts were developed circa 1765, suggesting a connection between the two. This theory is supported by the name of the game in Danish and Norwegian, kabal(e). An 1895 account describes a variant of the game exclusively used for cartomancy.[1]
The first collection of patience card games in the English language is attributed to Lady Adelaide Cadogan through her Illustrated Games of Patience, published in about 1870 and reprinted several times. Other collections quickly followed such as Patience by E. D. Cheney (1869), Amusement for Invalids by Annie B. Henshaw (1870), and later Dick's Games of Patience, published by Dick and Fitzgerald. Other books about patience written towards the end of the 19th century were by H. E. Jones (a.k.a. Cavendish), Angelo Lewis (a.k.a. Professor Hoffman), Basil Dalton, Ernest Bergholt, and Mary Whitmore Jones.

[quote]Warning: Asset Flip![/quote]
Solitaire - Cat Pirate Portrait is a Unity Asset flip, what Valve calls a "fake game". The "developer", BoogyGames Studios, took the Klondike Solitaire Complete Game Tutorial Unity Store tutorial asset pack from the real developers, University of Games, changed the name and reskinned it, and dumped the result onto Steam. They're attempting to scam people into buying this, so they can get your money for someone else's work.
To add further injury, Boogygames stole the watercolour artwork from artist Dmitry Trubin, "Pirate Cat on Deck" or "КОТ-ПИРАТ НА ПАЛУБЕ", and used that as the backdrop, without permission. This is copyright infringement and intellectual property theft, but of course Valve turns a blind eye to these Russian scammers.
BoogyGames Studios has shown a repeat pattern of unethically dumping other people's work onto Steam as a cheap, nasty cash grab. Here's some examples so you can see for yourself:
- "Hidden Object - Food" = Hidden Object Game Template developed by Puppeteer
- "Weapon and Armor: Mahjong" = Mahjong Game Engine developed by SmallBigSquare
- "Loot Collection: Mahjong" = Mahjong Game Engine developed by SmallBigSquare
- "Food Mahjong" = Mahjong Game Engine developed by SmallBigSquare
- "Color By Number - Pixel Draw" = Pixel Art: Color By Number developed by Moana Studio
- "Pixel Art Monster - Color By Number" = Pixel Art: Color By Number developed by Moana Studio
- "Rainbow Duck" = Switch The Gravity developed by App Advisory
- "Case Simulator Weapons and Armors" = Yet Another Case Opener developed by NeraQuam
[*] "MahJong - Medieval Fantasy" = Mahjong Game Engine developed by SmallBigSquare
The products that result from asset flips aren't "real" games. They lack depth and content, because they're just simplistic copies of demos or tutorials. In this case, "Klondike Solitaire Complete Game Tutorial " is just a Unity Asset Store tutorial pack to teach people how to make a Klondike Solitaire game using Unity, and doesn't have any merit as a proper, fully fledged PC game, so this copy+paste of it can't be recommended.
Asset flips don't involve any professional game development. Sure, sometimes they may change a few cosmetic things, swap out different assets etc, but at heart it's functionally identical to the asset they're ripping off.
Asset flips like this are harmful to the gaming industry and to Steam because they reduce the visibility that sincerely made indie games should have, and make it harder for gamers to find real games from genuine developers.
Don't reward this morally bankrupt, unethical behaviour from BoogyGames Studios.
I cannot fully express how disappointing this game was. There's nothing really fun or unique about it besides there being a pirate cat in the background of a very mechanically flawed game. One of the decks for example features four colors... which makes it pretty difficult to actually play solitaire, which is really the game's only function. Big thumbs down.
I like to buy cat games. So i picked this up. There is a picture of a pirate cat. No other cat items. Very buggy version of solitaire. If you can get it free go for it, but don't waste a dime unless you collected cat games and then wait for 90% off.
mmmmmmm cat solitaire mmmmm cat scurvy cat mario
incredible
Game freezes regularly & unable to close. Tried uninstalling, but had to shut down my machine & restart before being able to do so. Sorry, shame really.
Cannot get the cards to stack correctly.
Seriously... how do you blow Solitaire? Great looking game that is so badly coded (in Unity, no less) that it is painful to play. I really appreciate the concept here, and the art is nothing to sneeze at, but watching cards bounce spasmodically when you don't have a match, or trying to figure out how to trigger the menu, or wondering why everything seems comically over-sized while some of the markings are almost too small to read, it turns a relaxing diversion into a headache-inducing mess. I paid fifty cents for this game and I still feel it was overpriced.
If anyone is curious about how a solitaire game can have such bad reviews, trust me... they are all well-earned. Save yourself the hassle and just find an old copy MS Solitaire... graphics aside, its a masterpiece compared to this tribute to bad flash games.
Love this game...easy to play and great graphics...
Possibly the worst Solitaire game I have ever played with cringe worthy music.
This was the hardest card game I've had to play. I did manage to win afterwards though! Apart from that: great challenge. Cute pirate kitty and I enjoy the card designs! The more colorful cards are harder to play with (because of different shapes on them), BUT that means you can overcome another challenges and be proud of yourself. There isn't much to do, but for a mindless card fun + cheap prices = this will work. Thank you!!!
So it's just normal solitaire. It has a cat wearing a pirate outfit as its background. The music is awful so it gets turned off anyway. This is my "play in the background while I'm watching TV or avoiding adulting" game. It really just is bare bones and mindless, but a cute spin on the basic version...because...pirate cat. Plus it's really cheap...I think I may have gotten it as part of an extremely inexpensive bundle, so maybe wait for it to be on sale or look for it in a bundle deal if the price is scaring you away.
How the hell do you stuff up Solitaire?
In my eyes, stuffing up Solitaire is a bigger developing mistake than Nintendo's devastating Virtual Boy, bigger than Phil Fish's I quit because I can't handle a complaint, bigger than 2011 play station’s friendly 77 million you've been hacked notifications. Seriously if you have shares in this company http://www.boogygames.com/index.html then it’s time to Sell, Sell, And Sell.
* Tedious and anal drag and drop
* Marketing and Themes that appeal to Crazy Cat Ladies only
* Music that will make you wish you were deaf
* Zero starter’s instructions
* No achievements
* UI more unfriendly than finding a Klingon's G Spot.
* Scammy content that’s flagrantly ‘Nigerian I need your help to transfer money’ worthy.
Unity, skeletal, laborious, finished within 5 minutes.
This game needs more 'It Never Happened' marketing cover up than Roswell.
Below instead of showing game I thought I’d share a cat playing solitaire which is much more worthy of your precious time…

Dosent work
Old kind game with pirate themes. I recommend nostalgic.
Käyttöliittymä bugaa, korttien sijoittaminen on tarkkaa tai peli ei hyväksy siirtoa. Musiikki toistaa heti itseään ja äänitehosteet lähinnä ärsyttää. Merirosvoteemasta plussaa, mutta miksi kissa taustana jos korteissa ihmistaidetta kuitenkin???
Very basic solitaire game, as expected for such price. Good graphics, cute cat. However I've encountered some annoying issues while playing - when you drag and drop a card you have to point it presisely on new spot or otherwise it will jump back to old spot. Very annoying because other soliatire games don't have this issue. I hope developers can improve this behavior.
Otherwise nice game, would recommend it on sale
6/10
