🕌 Taj Mahal Solitaire

Taj Mahal Solitaire is a Klondike-style variant with a unique twist. Build tableau columns down by one rank using alternating colors (red on black, black on red), and move valid sequences. Foundations build Ace→King by suit. An empty column may take any single card or a valid sequence. If a tableau column has only one card left, that card becomes protected and can’t be used on the tableau until the stock is empty. Click the stock to reveal a new open card (single pass).

🎯 Objective

Move all cards to the four foundations (A→K by suit).

📜 How to Play

1. Build down in alternating colors on the tableau; you may move ordered sequences.
2. Start foundations with Aces and continue each suit up to King.
3. Use empty columns for any card or sequence to reorganize.
4. Draw from the stock to reveal an open card; once the stock is depleted, protected singletons lose protection.

💡 Strategy Tips

• Open columns early to stage multi-card moves.
• Work taller stacks first—protected singletons can stall progress until the stock runs out.
• Don’t rush cards to foundations if they help build longer sequences on the tableau.

✨ Why Play

Classic Klondike flow with the “protected card” wrinkle—fast, tactical, and satisfying.
