Featured Game - The Spark
The Spark is a two deck game that is an upside down variation of Busy Aces.
There are eight foundation piles. These are to be built DOWN in suit from King to Ace, the opposite direction as usual. The game is won when all cards are moved here.
There are twelve tableau piles. These are to be built UP in suit. Only top card available for play. Empty piles can be filled by any card. At the start of the game one card is dealt face up to each pile.
Finally, the remainder of the cards are dealt to a stock. Cards in the stock are moved to two waste piles by clicking. Clicking on the stock moves three cards to each of the waste piles. There are no redeals.
The Spark is actually an easy game to play, but what makes it difficult is that everything is backwards from the way most games play. This has no effect on how hard the game actually is, but it makes it psychologically difficult to play.
The Spark is one of the 1040 games in Pretty Good Solitaire (for Windows), one of the 750 games in Pretty Good Solitaire Mac Edition and Pretty Good Solitaire for iPad, and one of the 720 games in Pretty Good Solitaire Mini for iPhone.
