Canfield Solitaire is a popular solitaire game. The goal in this game is to get all 52 cards into the foundations. You must put the cards onto the foundation in order according to suit and rank, starting from the leading rank dealt at the beginning of the game, wrapping from King to Ace if neccessary. You can move either the top card or every card from one Tableau onto another Tableau pile, if the latter pile's top card is either one higher than the moved card, or the moved card is a King being played on an Ace; and in a different color. If both the Reserve pile and a Tableau pile are empty you can place any card you can normally move to the empty pile. Click the stock pile at the top left corner to deal new cards.
