## What is Royal Draw?

Royal Draw is poker solitaire, also known as Poker Squares. Cards come one at a time and you place each one on a 5×5 grid, where it stays. When the grid is full, all five rows and all five columns score as poker hands. Build the best board you can.

LEVELS
Every board has a target: a share of the best board its own 25 cards could make. Clear it to open the next level, and score higher for two or three stars. The first levels come part-built, so you can learn what a great board looks like. Later chapters raise the target and take away undo.

BLITZ
Every fifth level is a Blitz board. The clock starts at 8 seconds a card and shrinks as you climb, down to 3. Run out and the card lands where it lands.

THE ROYAL DRAW
When a row or column can still become a straight flush, it lights up. With four of the five in place, the open square shows the card you need and the odds it comes in time. When that card turns up, you'll know.
