Whitehead Solitaire

The aim of Whitehead Solitaire is to build all four suits up from Ace to King using a standard 52-card deck.

TABLEAU - At the begining player is dealt 28 cards face-up into seven piles. The first pile (left to right) gets one card, the second pile gets two cards, and so on, so the last pile gets seven cards. This set of piles is known as the tableau.

STOCK - After dealing cards to the tableau, remaining cards are set aside forming a stock pile.

WASTE - An empty waste pile.

FOUNDATION - Four empty foundation piles.

  • On the tableau, cards are played in descending order, same color.
  • An empty pile in tableau can be filled with any card and can then be played in descending order and same color.
  • Player can click on the stock pile anytime which deals 1 card face-up onto the waste pile. No redeal is allowed.
  • Foundation piles can contain cards starting from Ace so as Aces become available, it can be placed in one of the foundation piles. Cards of the same suit can then be played on each Ace in ascending order, from low (2) to high (King).
  • Top card from the waste pile is allowed to be moved onto the tableau or foundation piles.
  • Top card from the foundation is not allowed to be moved to any of the tableau piles.

The game ends once all cards are moved onto the foundation piles.

  • Drag and drop cards between tableau piles and/or foundation piles.
  • Click top card in the stock pile to draw card to the waste pile.
  • Double click card in the waste pile or any of the tableau piles to automatically move to the foundation.
