Overview

Scorpion Solitaire is a challenging card game. The object of the game is to arrange 4 tableaus in descending suit sequence from King to Ace: one tableau for each suit.

7 tableaus are dealt, with 7 cards on each tableau. The top 3 cards for the first 3 tableaus are dealt face down. All other cards in the tableau are dealt face up.

A reserve pile of 3 cards is dealt face down on the far left of the table.

Rules of the Game

Build down in suit (i.e., a 9 of spades can be played only on a 10 of spades)

Any card, regardless of where it is in the pile, can be moved together with the cards above it.

Spaces may be filled only with a King.

Nothing can be placed on an Ace. Therefore a King cannot move, except to an empty space.

After all possible moves are made, the cards in the reserve pile can be dealt out to the tableau.
