Divorce

A wife (or husband?) filed for divorce because the other partner could not stop playing this addictive game of solitaire. To avoid that I have ported the game to the iPhone, so you can play when you are not at home. This is a hard thinking game. You need to look several moves ahead to decimate the ranks of your enemies.
104 cards, 10 playing stacks, 8 foundations and five rows of open cards try to prevent you from solving this game. In Spider style you can place any open single card in descending order on any higher card of any suit and color, but you can only move multiple cards if they are of the same suit and color and in descending order. Do not forget that cascades WRAP AROUND and that you can put a King on an Ace. This is very important! Empty playing stacks accept any card as first card to ease things a bit.
The Foundations have a really unique twist: They take only complete series K .. A. DROP THE KING of a completed series on any empty FOUNDATION when you have the 13 cards ready.
Hint: Go slow! Take your time (approx. 1h). Plan ahead. Empty cascades are a priority. Always keep one empty to be able to rearrange cards. Resist to use too many cards from the waste, wait for the second turn after recycling.
The original rule deals a row of cards and does not use a waste. I think this makes things harder and less strategic. I hope you like the way how this game is implemented here.
Good Luck!
