Keep playing like this until you’ve moved all of the cards into the corresponding suit piles in ascending order, or have run out of cards that you are able to move. Whenever you are stuck, you can continue flipping over sets of 3 cards from the reserve pile as long as you’d like, but make sure to never shuffle it. If you can’t, flip over 3 more cards from the reserve pile. If you can, play it and then see if you can play the card underneath it. Once you come to a point where you can’t move any more cards, flip over the top 3 cards from the reserve pile, and see if you can play the top card anywhere. Continue to move the face-up cards around the playing area and into the 4 suit piles. Then, when you encounter the 2 in that suit, play it on top of the ace, followed by the 3 in that suit, and so on. If you have a face-up ace, place it above the playing area to start one of the 4 foundation piles you need to win the game. When you move a face-up card and expose a face-down card underneath it, turn the face-down card over. You can move a face-up card to the bottom of another column if the face-up card you’re playing it on is a different color and one number higher than it. To start the game, look at the face-up cards to see if you can move any of them to access the face-down cards underneath. Place the remaining cards in a pile off to the side.

Repeat until every column has a face-up card at the bottom. Once you finish all 4 foundation piles, you win! To set up the game, first place 1 card face up and 6 cards face down to the right.
