Duchess

DEAL

4 fans with 3 cards in each are dealt face-up. 4 cards are placed face-up in a row starting the tableau. The remaining cards are placed face-down as the deck.

PLAY

The object of the game is to place all cards in the their foundation pile in order from the first foundation card. Any card from the fans can be chosen as the first foundation card. All other foundations must start with the same rank. Cards can be moved between tableau piles but it must form a sequence with alternating suit colours. All cards piled on top must be moved as well. For example, the Jack of Clubs and 10 of Hearts could be moved on top of the Queen of Diamonds. Cards from the deck may be flipped into a discard pile 1 at a time and the top card can be moved into a tableau pile or foundation following the previous requirements. When the cards in the deck are gone the discard pile should be turned over to become the deck once again. Two times through the deck are allowed. An empty tableau pile can be filled with a card from a fan, or if the fans are empty from the discard pile.
