If you wish to move a tableau to another space or onto another card in the tableau you must move the whole pile. If the draw deck ever runs out the discard pile is flipped facedown, not shuffled, and you may continue flipping cards from it. To play cards deeper in the discard pile all cards above it must be played. To use the draw pile, the top three cards are drawn and placed in the discard pile, the top card of the discard pile is always available to be played either on the foundation or tableau. The top card of the tableau is also always available to be played on a foundation. For example, if you wish to play a card on a black 3, it must be a red 2.įor gameplay, the top card of the reserve is always available to be played onto a foundation. To play cards onto the tableau they must alternate colors and be placed in descending order. These cards will all need to be of the same suit of course. To play Canfield Solitaire you play cards onto the foundations in ascending order, for example, if your foundations are the 5s, you will build onto them like so: 6,7,8,9,10,J,Q,K,A,2,3,4. In fact, only about three percent of games are winnable, the rest coming to stand-still. Unlike regular Solitaire, Canfield has a strict rule guideline that makes the game much more challenging. The remaining cards are set on the table, face down, to make the draw pile. This will be your “tableau”, the place where the majority of the game is played. Underneath the foundation row set up a row of the next four drawn cards face-up. The other three cards of the same rank will be the other suites foundations and will be moved to the foundation row when they become available to you. The next card pulled from the remaining deck will determine your “foundations.” It will be set on the table face up. The rest of the pile is to remain unknown until they are revealed during the game. The reserve pile is placed face up, but take care to make sure only the first card is shown. The top 13 cards are taken off the top and placed to the left to make a “reserve” pile. After this is done, we can start building our playfield. The first thing needed for setup is for the deck to be shuffled. Completing all four foundations results in a win. Each foundation is its own suite (clubs, spade, hearts or diamonds) and you must place all the 13 cards of each suit in ascending order from the foundation card.
