PySol - Rules for Guardian

# Guardian

Klondike type. 1 deck. Unlimited redeals.

### Object

Move all cards to the foundations.

### Rules

The tableau piles are built in a pyramid-esque layout, with five cards in the top layer, four cards in the middle, and three in the bottom. Each card forms a tableau pile which can be built down by alternate color. The three bottom layer cards can be filled with any card when empty, but the remaining layers cannot be filled. Cards in the lower layers can only be flipped if the two cards overlapping them are removed.

Foundations are built up in suit from Ace to King.

Cards are dealt from the stock three at a time, and can be moved to foundations or exposed tableau piles. You can go through the deck as many times as needed.

The game is won when all cards are moved to the foundations.

### Notes

The name of the game comes from the way a single card (especially an immovable king) can "guard" multiple cards beneath them.
