Description

Canfield (also known as Canfields saloon) is a card solitaire where your challenge is to build a foundation that contains all 52 cards ordered in increasing order for each suit. It is fun and it may sound simple, but finishing this solitaire is more difficult than you might think. In the game you can choose from multiple card tables and card backsides so you can get a personal experience. You also have access to highscore and game statistics which you may use to improve your results. This is one of our favorite card solitaires, and we are convinced you will enjoy it too! Try it out now.


When the solitaire starts, thirteen cards are dealt to a reserve pile (only the top card is visible from the start) and four cards are dealt to four helper piles (one card to each pile). Moreover, a single card is dealt to the first foundation pile. This card sets the starting point for how you are allowed to construct the foundation since the remaining three foundation piles must start with the same value as the first. This is a difference between Canfield and the classical Klondike solitaire, where each foundation pile must start with an ace.


You are in the Canfield solitaire allowed to construct sequences of cards in decreasing order and with alternating color in the helper piles. For example, nine of hearts can be placed on ten of spades (or clubs) and five of spades can be put on six of hearts (or diamonds). Moreover, in the helper piles you are allowed to circle downwards, that is, you are allowed to put kings on aces when you construct your sequences. In the foundation you are allowed to circle upwards, that is, you may put aces on top of kings if they are of the same suit. Try Canfield now, it is fun!


The solitaire features:

- Multiple card tables.

- Multiple card backsides.

- Highscore that you can use to compete with yourself.

- Easy to drag piles.

- Automatic move-to-foundation through tapping.

- Function to resume unfinished games.

- Game statistics.

- Sound effects that can be turned on and off.

- A zoom function that can be used for zooming on small devices.

- Adjustable card animation speed.

Canfield

Canfield is a patience card game played with a single deck of 52 cards. The goal of the game is to build eight foundations, one for each suit, in ascending order from Ace to King.

Setup

To set up the game, deal 13 cards to the tableau, arranged in seven piles of three cards each and one pile of four cards. The remaining cards form the stock.

Gameplay

The game is played by moving cards from the tableau to the foundations or to the stock. To move a card to a foundation, it must be the next highest card in suit to the top card of the foundation. To move a card to the stock, it must be the same rank as the top card of the stock.

If there are no moves available in the tableau, the player can draw three cards from the stock. If any of the cards drawn can be moved to a foundation or the stock, the player may do so. If not, the cards are discarded to the waste pile.

The game continues until either all eight foundations are built or there are no more moves available.

Variations

There are several variations of Canfield, including:

* Double Canfield: This variation is played with two decks of cards.

* Triple Canfield: This variation is played with three decks of cards.

* Canfield with Redeals: This variation allows the player to redeal the stock once.

* Canfield with Jokers: This variation adds two jokers to the deck, which can be used as any card.

Strategy

There are several strategies that can help players win at Canfield, including:

* Building foundations as soon as possible: This will give you a head start on the game and make it more likely that you will be able to complete all eight foundations.

* Moving cards to the stock when possible: This will help you to keep the stock moving and increase your chances of drawing cards that you can use.

* Discarding cards to the waste pile wisely: When you discard a card to the waste pile, you are making it less likely that you will be able to use it later in the game. Therefore, it is important to discard cards that are unlikely to be useful.

Canfield is a challenging but rewarding game that can be enjoyed by players of all skill levels. With a little practice, you can learn to win consistently.
