Cruel Solitaire

Cruel Solitaire is a solitaire card game where the Aces are moved to the foundations, and the remaining cards are dealt into 12 piles of 4 cards. The Player can move only the top card on each pile, and can build down the piles by suit, or build up the foundations by suit. When the player can no longer move any cards, he can pick up all the cards and place them into piles of four, without shuffling them.

How To Play Cruel

The four aces are removed from the deck and used to start each of the four foundations. The remaining 48 cards are dealt into 12 piles of 4 cards each. The player is only allowed to move the top card in each of these piles. The cards in the piles can be built down by suit, and the foundations must be built up by suit. When the player gets stuck, he can pick up all the cards and redistribute them back into four card piles without shuffling them.
