VERTICAL SOLITAIRE GAME

It often happens that solitaire and the method of disassembling it at the very beginning of the game looks simple and clear. However, in the process, you begin to understand that careful consideration of the sequence of moves is just as important here as in more complex solitaire games. In vertical solitaire, cards are removed from the table in pairs. A pair in this case is two cards of the same value. A lady and a lady, a dozen and a dozen, for example...

Pay attention to the layout scheme. The top block consists of cards laid out in columns, i.e. vertical rows, in which only the last (top) cards are free to play. The lower block, on the contrary, contains ten cards lying open and singly, which allows you to take any of them at a convenient time.

This arrangement of cards is partly a trap for overly impulsive players. They immediately start cleaning up the easily accessible cards of the lower block, and then, when they find that there are no more options left, they lose the showdown. To prevent this from happening, we recommend that you take the most careful approach to analyzing vertical columns from the very beginning, combining cards with each other, or selecting a pair from the lower block. Crossovers are not allowed here.

Nice layouts!
