Russian Solitaire

A much harder version of Yukon.
Also known as Strict Yukon.

 

General Rules

Uses 1 pack of cards.

No Stock is used.

Only face-up cards are playable.

 

How to Win

The game is won when each Foundation Pile shows a King.

 

Building the Foundations

Only 1 card at a time may be played to (or from) a Foundation Pile.

Only an Ace can be placed on an empty Foundation Pile.

Build each Foundation Pile in ascending value from Ace to King, with all cards in a Pile sharing the same suit.

 

Building the Tableau Stacks

The Tableau Stacks are used to manage and store cards, before they are eventually moved to the Foundations.

Build each Stack in descending value and same suit.

A group of cards can be moved to another stack if the first card in the group will build in descending value and same suit. All cards in front of the moved card also be moved, regardless of their value or suit.

Only a King, or any group of cards headed by a King, can be placed on an empty Stack.
