King Albert might not be as well as well-known as Classic Solitaire, or Patience, but it remains a fascinatingly challenging variant of Klondike solitaire. Though how it came to be named King Albert is not certain, it is speculated to be named for King Albert I of Belgium, who reigned during the unfortunate period of World War I when Belgium was heavily occupied and ruled by Germany.

At any rate, King Albert is aptly named if for no other reason than that players will certainly feel the plight of Albert I. The low likelihood of winning a game has earned it the moniker of “Idiot’s Delight.” There are two other solitaire variants that share this derisive nickname, Perpetual Motion and Aces Up.

Though King Albert is difficult for beginners to win, it is also easy to understand. For this reason, as with any so-called “Idiot’s Delight” version of solitaire, it can be an enjoyable way to pass longer stretches of time. Of interest might be the concept of sharing a game of solitaire—that is, taking turns with friends to see who can be the first to win a game. A mastery of the game’s mechanics will eventually yield a much higher chance of winning.

The Rules of King Albert

After the deck is shuffled, nine tableau piles are laid out down. Each tableau has an increasing number of cards, so that the first has one card, the second has two cards, and so on all the way up to the ninth tableau with nine cards. Seven leftover cards remain in a reserve. All 52 cards of the deck should be face up, and the four foundations begin empty.

The goal of King Albert, as with many solitaire variants, is to initially get the aces to the foundation piles and to build these foundations up in suit to Kings. So, for example, an Ace of Diamonds must be followed by a Two of Diamonds, a Three of Diamonds, and so on. Once a card is placed onto the foundation, it cannot be removed.

Meanwhile, tableaus are built down in alternating colors. Thus, a Five of Spades could be followed by either a Four of Diamonds or a Four of Hearts, for example. Only one card may be moved at a time, and only the top card on the tableau may be moved, although it can be moved anywhere at any time within the given rules.

The seven reserve cards may be used for either tableaus or foundations, and any card may be placed on an emptied tableau pile. However, the reserve cannot be refilled with other cards, even if all seven reserves are depleted.

How to Play

- The four foundations all start with an ace and must be build by ascending value by suit.

- The tableau can be built in descending order by alternating color.

- There is also a set of seven free cards at the top, which can be moved to the tableau or foundations.

- You can only move move single cards from one tableau pile to another, or from the tableau to the foundations.

- When you remove all the cards from a tableau pile, you can move any card to the empty space.

- Move all cards to the foundations to complete the game.
