Notes

In the reserve piles, cards may be played on other cards of the same rank.  For example, if the top card of a pile is a Three, another Three can be played on top of it.  The object is to move the cards so that there are 13 piles of 4 cards of the same rank, that is, one pile of 4 Kings, one pile of 4 Queens, and so on.  Note that the 4 cards must all be of different suits.
