You will start with a board of 7 columns, each with 5 cards, all face up. At the bottom you will find a stack of cards and a foundation pile. The goal of the game is to clear as many boards as possible by tapping cards that are one lower or one higher than the one in the foundation pile. You can match any uncovered card from any column. FEATURES - Advanced Hint option - Unlimited Undo - Natural animations and relaxing graphics - Intuitive interface - Daily/monthly/all time highscores TIPS - You can match a queen with a king or jack, or you can match a 2 with an ace or a 3. The king can be matched with an ace or a queen. A jack matches with a 10 or a queen and so on. - If there are no matches available you can tap on the stack for a new card. - Once you draw all the cards and no matches are available you are dealt a new set of cards. - You are dealt new cards only 4 times and after that the game ends. If you clear a board you receive a free deal. - Each match earns you 10 points. The first column you clear earns you 100 points, the next column earns you 200 points and so on. The last column earns you 10000 points. - Plan your moves in advance to achieve the best results. If you have any technical problems, please email us directly at support@gsoftteam.com.
