Aunt Mary Solitaire

This challenging solitaire game closely resembles Yukon Solitaire but features several subtle differences that may require you to adapt your strategy. At the beginning of the game, six tableau piles are dealt, each with a varying number of face-up cards: the first pile has six, the second five, and so on, until the last pile, which contains just a single face-up card. The remaining cards form the stock pile. Your goal is to move all cards onto four foundation piles, built upward from Ace to King within each suit. The tableau is constructed downward in alternating colors, and you can move sequences of cards within the tableau, provided they follow the descending and color-alternating rule. When an empty tableau space appears, only a King—or a sequence starting with a King—can be moved into it. Additionally, you can turn over one card from the stock and place it onto a tableau pile if it adheres to the rules. Cards from the stock or tableau can also be transferred to the foundation piles whenever possible. One key difference from traditional Yukon is that once the stock is exhausted, no redeals are permitted—we only have one chance to use the stock. With strategic planning and a bit of luck, you can aim to move all the cards to the foundation piles. The more cards you successfully build into foundations, the higher your score.
