Or come to our Facebook page and tell us all about it. Crescent Solitaire is a fairly simple solitaire game, but still has some features that set it apart from other solitaires, like an unusually high number of piles, being played with two whole decks, and a shuffling function. The game has only two types of piles, Tableaus and Foundations, and the objective is to move all cards from the tableaus onto the foundations. There are 16 tableau piles in Crescent solitaire and they are laid out in a crescent shape.
Each tableau pile starts with 6 cards in it. All cards are face up, so you can peek behind the top card by dragging it away and then releasing it. You can move cards between the tableaus only 1 at a time , you may drop a card onto a tableau if it's the same suit as the top card of the tableau, and it's rank is one higher or one lower than the top card rank.
So you could drop an 8 of clubs onto a 7 of clubs, or an 8 of clubs onto a 9 of clubs. The cards in the tableaus can also wrap around, you could put a king of clubs, then an ace of clubs, then a 2 of clubs. Basically you can use the tableaus to gather cards together until you can move them onto the Foundations.
When you can't use any of the top cards on any of the tableau piles you can use the Shuffle button. The classic Crescent Solitaire game has only 3 shuffles per game, but we found out that having that rule meant that almost no one managed to win any games! So we have three game modes, Easy 9 shuffles , Medium 6 shuffles , and Hard 3 shuffles. You can select between them by clicking on the Options link. When you click Shuffle the game will take the bottom card from each tableau pile and put it on top of the pile so you can get to it.
So it's not really a shuffle, it's just moving the bottom card to the top. There are two rows of foundations, four foundations in each row, so a total of eight foundation piles. The top row has four foundations and they start with Kings in them. In this top row you build down, so you can put a queen onto a king of the same suit, jack onto the queen and so on, all the way down to the ace.
The bottom row starts with aces and there you build up, so you put a 2 onto an ace, a 3 onto a 2 and so on up to a King. Once you've moved all cards from the tableaus and placed them in the right order onto the foundations you win the game.
You are allowed to move cards back from the foundations onto the tableaus if it is helpful for you, but you are not allowed to remove the starting cards, the kings and aces, from the foundation piles. This is our 13th solitaire game here at CardGames. If you have any questions, comments or requests for other solitaire games you can send them to admin cardgames.
Many thanks go to Nicu Buculei , who created the excellent playing card images that I use for the game. Each second you have remaining in your time limit is worth 10 points. This game has 4 levels with each level giving you less time time complete it than the earlier level. The first level offers 20 minutes, and each subsequent level offers 2 fewer minutes, so the second level is 18 minutes, the third level is 16 minutes, and the fourth level is 14 minutes.
When you can not shuffle through the deck any more times and you have no valid moves left it is game over. Technically this game does not offer a continue if you click the game over button. You can however continue by refreshing the browser screen before clicking the "GAME OVER" button to reload the game and then continue from the level you just played.
The final level is harder than the other leves as the first 3 levels allow you to take advantage of empty columns on the tableau to resort card orders or move cards to surface hidden cards.
On the final level you can not play cards into the empty columns. We offer another version of Crescent Solitaire which has a cleaner aesthetic design but only has 1 level on it. If you've played traditional Classic Solitaire, and are looking for a different challenge, you might want to take a look at some of the variations.
One challenging variation, Crescent Solitaire, is a two-deck version of the game. Solitaire, in its original form, emerged in the s in northern Europe. Crescent Solitaire is a variation of La Belle Lucie, a classic patience game that was first published in the English language by Lady Adelaide Cadogan in This solitaire game uses two decks.
Players attempt to complete eight foundations with four foundations dealt with the Ace in place and the other four foundations dealt with the Kings in place. The remaining ninety-six cards are dealt on the tableau in sixteen stacks which are six cards deep. Stack the cards sequentially on the Foundations. Cards which cannot yet be stacked onto the Foundations can be placed in sequential order on other cards in the Tableau provided they are in the same suit.
There is no reserve in this game. All cards are in play. However, you are allowed three reshuffles, which move the bottom card from each of the 16 columns on the Tableau to the top.
The computer will deal the cards for you, however if you're playing the card version of the game, arrange two sets of four cards. One set is the Aces, the other set is the Kings. The fan is made up of sixteen cards with the remaining cards dealt on top forming sixteen piles of six cards each. The top card in a pile can be moved. It can be moved onto another card if it is in sequence.
Click on the left mouse button to hold and drag a card to the desired position. In the online game, if you try to make an illegal move, the computer won't allow you to place the card. Cards can only be moved one at a time, but you can reverse the order of cards in a column by laying them in another open column. You can also move cards across foundations. In Classic Solitaire, you use a single deck. Players stack cards in descending order while alternating suit color on the Tableau and build four ascending suit-based foundations starting from the Ace and working up to the King.
In Crescent Solitaire, you use two decks. Players attempt to complete eight Foundations. The cards are all dealt out as opposed to using a deck from which to draw extra cards during game play. You lose the game. Always try to keep as many options open as you can.
