Klondike Solitaire

In Klondike Solitaire, cards are dealt to the deck

3-at-a-time and the player can pass through the

deck indefinitely. Twenty (20) points are deduct-

ed for each pass through the deck after the

player has gone through the deck three (3)

times.  

Vegas Solitaire

Vegas Solitaire follows the same rules as

Klondike Solitaire, but in this game you will

begin with 500 points.  Points are accumulated

between consecutive games.  Each time you

start a new game, you will lose 52 points (one

point for each card in the deck).

You will win 5 points each time you move a card

from a card stack or the deck to a suit stack.   

You will lose 5 points each time you move a card

from the suit stack back down to a card stack.

You may only pass through the deck once, and

deck cards are turned over one (1) at a time.

MOVING THE CARDS

The object of Solitaire is to build four (4) Suit

Stacks – from Ace to King – with each stack

containing only the cards of a particular suit.

The player will accomplish this by drawing a

card from the deck and moving it to the card

stacks or suit stacks.  Build the card stacks in

descending order, alternating solid and outlined

cards and move them to the suit stacks when

possible.  Only the King may be moved to an

empty card stack.  

NOTE:  Solid cards are the black suits and out-

lined cards are the red suits.

Moving the cards is easy!  First, press the button

corresponding to the card(s) you want to move

(Deck, Card Stack or Suits).  The selected

card(s) will flash.  When selecting a card in the

suit stacks, hold down the Suits button until the

desired card is flashing.  Pressing the button

again will release the card.  After selecting the

card(s) you want to move, press the button cor-

responding to the location where you want to

move them.

utes of non-activity. To wake the game, press
