Russian Solitaire: from controls to your first round

Begin with the objective. Build four suit foundations from ace to king. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Use the rule sheet as a reference. Move any face-up card and its tail onto the next higher rank of the same suit. Kings fill empty columns. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.

Yukon-style deal, same-suit building, no stock. Free solo play, no wagering.
