FEATURED GAME - CADRAN

Cadran is a two deck game very much like Forty Thieves.

There are eight foundation piles, which are to be built up in suit from Ace to King as usual. The game is won when all of the cards are moved here.

At the start of the game, four cards are dealt face up to ten tableau piles. These piles are built down in suit. Only one card at a time may be moved. Spaces may be filled by any card.

The remainder of the cards form a stock. This is dealt one card at a time to a waste pile. The waste pile is different from Forty Thieves in that all of the cards in the waste pile are visible. This makes Cadran a somewhat easier game than Forty Thieves in that you can see what cards are buried in the waste.

Nevertheless an average player wins only about 12-15% of the game, so the game is still hard. But much better scores are possible.

Cadran is one of the the 1015 games in Pretty Good Solitaire (for Windows) at https://www.goodsol.com/download.html , and one of the the 750 games in Pretty Good Solitaire Mac Edition at https://www.goodsol.com/mac and one of the 700 games in Pretty Good Solitaire for iPad at https://www.goodsol.com/ipad and one of the 720 games in Pretty Good Solitaire Mini for iPhone at https://www.goodsol.com/iphone .

FEATURED GAME - FOUR LEAF CLOVERS

Four Leaf Clovers is a simple one deck game.

At the start of the game, four cards are dealt face up to thirteen tableau piles, making Four Leaf Clovers an open game.

There is only one foundation pile. This pile is built up regardless of suit from Ace to King, wrapping from King to Ace until the pile contains all 52 cards. The game is won when all 52 cards are moved here.

In the 13 tableau piles, build up or down regardless of suit, wrapping from King to Ace or Ace to King if necessary. Only one card at a time may be moved. Spaces are not filled.

Four Leaf Clovers is a simple game to win and probably can be won in most cases. It is somewhat similar to the game Black Hole.

Four Leaf Clovers is one of the the 1015 games in Pretty Good Solitaire (for Windows) at https://www.goodsol.com/download.html , and one of the the 750 games in Pretty Good Solitaire Mac Edition at https://www.goodsol.com/mac and one of the 700 games in Pretty Good Solitaire for iPad at https://www.goodsol.com/ipad and one of the 720 games in Pretty Good Solitaire Mini for iPhone at https://www.goodsol.com/iphone .
