Featured Game - Prime Minister
Prime Minister is one of the key new games in Pretty Good Solitaire v1.6 for iPad. It is a Terrace type game that is definitely worth playing.
It is a two deck game. There are eight foundation piles, which will be built up in suilt from Ace to King. The game is won when all of the cards are moved here.
There are ten tableau piles. Building is down by alternate color. Groups of cards in descending sequence down by alternate color may be moved as a unit. Spaces are filled only by Kings or a group of cards headed by a King. At the start of the game one card is dealt to the first and 10th piles, two cards to the 2nd and 9th piles, three cards to the 3rd and 8th piles, four cards to the 4th and 7th piles, and five cards to the 5th and 6th piles. Only the top card is face up.
Also, there is a reserve pile. At the start of the game six cards are dealt face up here. The top card of the reserve is available for play only on the foundation piles (not the tableau). This is standard in Terrace type games and makes the game challenging.
The remainder of the cards form a stock. Whenever play comes to a standstill, clicking on the stock will deal one card to each tableau pile that is not headed by a King. There are no redeals.
Like all Terrace type games, the key to winning Prime Minister is to get the cards out of the reserve pile as quickly as possible..
Prime Minister is one of the 1040 games in Pretty Good Solitaire (for Windows), and one of the 750 games in Pretty Good Solitaire Mac Edition and Pretty Good Solitaire for iPad.
