Klondike Solitaire
In Klondike Solitaire, cards are dealt to the
deck 3-at-a-time and the player can pass
through the deck indefinitely. Twenty (20)
points are deducted for each pass through the
deck after the player has gone through the
deck three (3) times.
Vegas Solitaire
Vegas Solitaire follows the same rules as
Klondike Solitaire, but in this game you will
begin with 500 points. Points are accumulated between consecutive games. Each time
you start a new game, you will lose 52 points
(one point for each card in the deck).
You will win 5 points each time you move a
card from a card stack or the deck to a suit
stack.
You will lose 5 points each time you move a
card from the suit stack back down to a card
stack.
You may only pass through the deck once,
and deck cards are turned over one (1) at a
time
MOVING THE CARDS
The object of Solitaire is to build four (4) Suit
Stacks – from Ace to King – with each stack
containing only the cards of a particular suit.
The player will accomplish this by drawing a
card from the deck and moving it to the card
stacks or suit stacks. Build the card stacks in
descending order, alternating solid and outlined cards and move them to the suit stacks
when possible. Only the King may be moved
to an empty card stack.
NOTE: Solid cards are the black suits and
outlined cards are the red suits.
Moving the cards is easy! First, press the button corresponding to the card(s) you want to
move (Deck, Card Stacks or Suits). The
selected card(s) will flash. When selecting a
card in the suit stacks, hold down the Suits
button until the desired card is flashing.
Pressing the button again will release the
card. After selecting the card(s) you want to
move, press the button corresponding to the
location you want to move them.
SLEEP MODE
Pocket Solitaire will go to sleep after two (2)
minutes of non-activity. To wake the game,
press the On•Deal•Draw button.
