Quick Start Instructions

  • Build the four suit piles from Ace to King.
  • In the columns, build down by alternating colors.
  • Draw from the deal pile to the waste pile (Draw 1 or Draw 3).
  • Empty columns accept a King or a stack starting with a King.

Settings You Can Customize

  • Left-hand or right-hand layout for the deal and waste piles (great on mobile).
  • Card designs: pick a style in Card Designs. Keep Filter by Theme on to show designs that fit your current theme and day/night mode.
  • Card faces: Mobile (larger text) or Standard (classic look).
  • Tap to Auto-move (optional) for quick moves on a single tap.
  • Auto-flip on reveal to turn cards face up automatically.

You can also choose Draw 1 or Draw 3 when you start a new deal.
