the solitaire game originally seen on the PC and later ported to

THEORY OF PLAY
|
|
|
|
|
The object of the game is to remove all the tiles from the board.
|
|
|
|
|
Tiles are removed in by matching two identical tiles which have
|
|
|
|
|
either an open left edge or open right edge. The only exception
|
|
|
|
|
to this rule is that any open "flower" tile (bamboo, orchid, plum,
|
|
|
|
|
or chrysanthemum) matches any other open "flower" tile and any open
|
|
|
|
|
"season" tile (spring, summer, autumn, or winter) matches any other
|
|
|
|
|
open "season" tile.
