Objective

The objective of Scorpion Solitaire is to move all cards from the tableau to the foundations.

Setup

TABLEAU - At the begining player is dealt 49 cards into seven piles each pile containing 7 cards. First 4 piles have top 4 cards face-up and remaining 3 cards face-down. Remaining 3 piles have all cards turned face-up. This set of piles is known as the tableau.

STOCK - After dealing cards to the tableau, remaining 3 cards are set aside forming a stock pile.

FOUNDATION - Four empty foundation piles.

Gameplay

• On the tableau, cards are played in descending order, same suit.
• Groups of cards can be moved; the cards below the one to be moved do not need to be in any order, except that the starting and target cards must be built in sequence and in same suit. When a card or a group of cards is moved from one pile of the tableau to another, face-down top card from the first pile is turned face up.
• An empty pile in tableau can only be filled with a King and can then be played in descending order and same suit.
• Player can click on the stock pile anytime which deals remaining 3 cards face-up onto the first 3 piles in the tableau.
• When player completes a sequence in the tableau (King to Ace), it is automatically moved to an empty foundation.
• Moving cards from the foundation to the tableau is not allowed.

The game ends once all cards are moved onto the foundation piles.
