Featured Game - Scorpion Head
Scorpion Head is a variation of the popular game Scorpion with cells.
As in Scorpion, the object is to group all the cards into four sets of 13 cards in sequence down in suit from King to Ace within the tableau.
There are seven tableau piles that are to be built down in suit. Groups of cards (regardless of any sequence) can be moved as a unit, so you can uncover any face up card. Fill spaces with Kings or groups of cards headed by a King. At the start of the game eight cards are dealt face up to the first three piles, in the rest of the piles four cards are face down and three cards are face up.
There are four cells on the left. Only 1 card allowed in each cell, as in FreeCell.
Scorpion Head is easier than regular Scorpion due to the cells. It can be won nearly every time, but an average player wins about 60% of the time.
Scorpion Head 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.
