1 Deck.  Easy (82%). Mostly Skill.

 

Object

To group all the cards into 4 sets of 13 cards in sequence down in suit from King to Ace within the tableau.

 

Layout

10 tableau piles - build down regardless of suit.  Groups of cards in sequence down in suit may be moved as a unit.  Spaces are filled by any card or legal group of cards.  At the start of the game 8 cards are dealt face up to the first 3 piles, 7 cards to the 4th pile, 6 cards to the 5th pile, and so on until 1 card is dealt to the last pile.

 

Tips

Same suit sequences should be preferred even though building is down regardless of suit.  The object is to build in suit sequences.
