Along with the classic version there are three variants: RELAXED - Allows any card (not just Kings) to be placed on an empty cell. 3-CARD - Allows unlimited cycles through the deck three cards at-a-time. RUSH - Allows three passes through the deck. First 3 cards, then 2 cards and finally 1 card at-a-time. Featuring auto-promote to speed up the game.
