Christmas-Solitaire: Snowflake
1.Objective: The objective of Christmas Solitaire is to bring joy and presents to Santa's workshop by successfully arranging all the cards into the foundation piles in ascending order and by suit.
2.Setup: Shuffle a standard deck of cards. Instead of the usual tableau setup, we'll create a Christmas tree shape with seven piles. Place the first pile at the top, representing the tree's trunk, with one card facing down. The second pile below it has two cards (one face down and one face up). The third pile below it has three cards (one face down and two face up). Continue this pattern until the seventh pile at the bottom, which has seven cards (one face down and six face up).
3.Gameplay: The gameplay mechanics follow traditional Solitaire rules. You can build sequences in descending order and alternating colors, moving fully packed or partial sequences between tableau piles. Uncovering Aces starts building the foundation piles.
4.Stocking Pile: Introducing the stocking pile, representing Santa's magical Christmas stocking. At the beginning of the game, place five cards face down in the stocking pile. You can reveal and use one card from the stocking pile per turn. These special cards offer strategic abilities to aid you in the game. For example, you may find a card that allows you to move any card to an empty tableau pile, swap the positions of two cards, or even skip a move entirely.
5.Jingle Bells: To create a festive atmosphere, play some jingle bells music in the background while playing the game. The cheerful tunes add to the Christmas spirit and make the experience more enjoyable.
6.Winning: The game is won when all cards are successfully moved to the foundation piles in ascending order and separated by suit. If you can't make any more moves or if you have cards left in the stockpile, the game ends in a loss.
