Once you’ve moved the top card, the second card moves up to the top position and all the other cards in the stock also move up one spot, creating new options. In this game, you deal 3 cards instead of 1, and you can only use the top card. The above rules also apply to three-card Solitaire, the only difference being that not all the cards from the stock are available. You should move a King to the empty space as soon as possible this will also uncover a new card. Once you’ve completed a pile, thus creating an empty space, only a King can fill it. With each new card, you should examine whether you can use it somewhere on the tableau in order to uncover new cards. Every time you press or click on this pile, 1 new card is dealt to the waste. When no more legal moves are possible on the tableau, we turn to the stockpile. And since the first card of a foundation always has to be an Ace, we can immediately play it to the foundation. In Figure 3, we see that after moving the 8, a new card is turned over, a black Ace. The more cards have been turned over, the greater the chances of winning the game. ![]() You can also move several cards at once if these have already been stacked on top of each other.Įvery time you move a card to another pile, a hidden card will be turned over, giving you new options. In Figure 2, for example, you can move a black 7 to a red 8. On the tableau itself, you can move the face up cards from pile to pile, alternating in color and in descending order. To win a game of Solitaire, you have to move all the cards distributed across the tableau and the stock to the 4 foundations, sorted by suit and in ascending order from the Ace to the King. The rules below concern the easy and most frequently played version, dealing 1 card. When you start a new game, you can choose whether you want to deal 1 card or 3 cards. The foundation: All the cards of the foundation, waste and tableau ultimately end up here.The waste: Once all the cards of the stock have been brought into play, they end up face up in the waste pile.The stock: After the 28 cards have been dealt into piles on the tableau, the remaining 24 cards comprise the stockpile and are turned face down.Only the last card of each pile is turned face up and the rest are turned face down. The first pile always consists of 1 card, with each subsequent pile containing 1 more card than the preceding one. The tableau: Solitaire is played with 52 cards, with 28 of them being distributed in 7 piles across the tableau. ![]() ![]() To help you learn to play the game, let’s first explain what the playing field looks like. This game has even become so popular over time that most people simply call it “Solitaire”, without the “Klondike”. Solitaire is the collective name for a large number of single-player card games, of which Klondike Solitaire is the best known.

![]() There are even four angles to adjust this unit to, so it's versatile enough to project either onto the wall or ceiling from your chosen surface. During our Atmosphere Smart Galaxy Projector review we were impressed by its sleek design that's sure to delight many: it's modern and compact, which allows the user to place it pretty much anywhere in the household without ruining the aesthetic. ![]() We don't know what we love most about the Atmosphere Smart Galaxy Projector (opens in new tab) from Encalife: the exquisite 16.7 million nebula colors to choose from or the ability to control this projector with our voice with Alexa and Google. Read our full Sega Toys Homestar Flux star projector review.You can also buy disks that simulate fireworks, 'night jellyfish' and a hot-air balloon festival. For example, the North America nebula as taken by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and the weird seven-star system called Jabbah (officially called Nu Scorpii and IC 4592) as imaged by NASA's WISE mission. There's also a disk that shows the planets of the solar system, yet there are others that really impress, including some that display galaxies, nebulas, and various NASA-based imagery. Simulation of the aurora borealis and the aurora australis are perhaps the highlights. Go to Astrial, Sega Toys' official online shop and you can choose from 30 more disks. It has an automatic switch-off after 15, 30 or 60 minutes function. Like many other star projectors, there's a 'shooting star' function, although in our Sega Homestar Flux review we explained how we'd like this to be at random intervals, or in a different place each time so it isn't as predictable. A further 17 Sega-branded disks are available to be purchased separately for around $18 a piece, and it's also compatible with Homestar Original (opens in new tab) disks. One shows a starry sky with 60,000 stars while the other contains constellation labels to aid with learning. The Homestar Flux comes with two discs, the Northern Hemisphere and the Northern Hemisphere Constellations. This globe-shaped product excels with the sheer number of distinct stars it projects, and it has some tempting science-based upgrade options. After adjusting the focus to suit on your projection surface, you'll see 60,000 stars - many more than its competitors. More of a home, scientific planetarium than a simple star projector, we found the Homestar Flux's multilevel glass lenses produce realistic-looking night skies from the comfort of your own home and are plenty bright enough, even for rooms that aren't 100% dark. One of the sleekest-looking and most powerful star projectors around, the satin black Sega Toys Homestar Flux, although compact, comes with a high price - and ambition to match. ![]() Here at, we've cast our eye over the market for the best star projectors, reviewed a number of them, and rounded up the best for bringing the stars, planets and galaxies into your home. The more expensive versions focus on a more scientific planetarium-style experience. Those models at the more affordable end of the market tend to concentrate on filling rooms with lights and color and mostly novelty-style ambient projections. The price brackets from one model to the next can be vast too, even when there isn't much to tell them apart. ![]() They are all easy to set up and use, but star projectors come in many shapes and sizes - some more geared towards children - and with various levels of scientific accuracy. They can be a lovely alternative to a night light if your child is afraid of the dark, especially ones that come with timers that will automatically switch off after the desired time has passed. Full of stars, constellations and galaxies the best star projectors can create an immersive experience that can spark imagination, add a fun vibe to a party or games room, or help you drift off to sleep. Recreate the wonder of the night sky at home without having to leave the house. The best star projectors can bring the night sky inside by projecting a realistic-looking cosmos on your wall or ceiling. ![]() His main character trait is an obsession with the actress Lillie Langtry. He finds a law book on the table, and sets himself up to be a judge. (The first tall tale of the film: he single handedly kills about 20 people). A girl gives him a gun and he returns to kill everyone in the bar. They cold cock him, drag him from a horse and leave him for dead. ![]() A wanted bank robber, he walks out of the desert into a godforsaken frontier saloon one day, and is attacked by all the dirty people within. Fast forward over this! Newman plays Judge Bean, “the Only Law West of the Pecos”. In this one, they blatantly copy the Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head sequence, with a montage scene cut to a terrible song called H oneysuckle, Molasses and Honey sung by Andy Williams. That film also showcases Newman as another western legend, also wearing a derby hat. We also see that, in the wake of Butch Cassidy, Paul Newman got the mistaken idea that he had a flair for comedy. Usually such films were rooted in verite though, whereas this one is outlandish. Also like other movies of the time, such as The King of Marvin Gardens or The Last Detail, it feels plotless and randomly episodic - experimental. For the most part Bean plays like a silly comedy, but there’s more to it. ![]() There is this idea of a flaw in the American character leading to unhappiness. (Like those aforementioned movies, Roy Beans gives its legendary story a tragic dimension. Texas Hanging Judge Roy Bean was a real historical figure, but he was also the stuff of legend. Like Jeremiah Johnson and Little Big Man and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (the latter of which had also starred Paul Newman) it plays with the idea of the tall tale and the opposite idea that this story just might be true. It’s the late John Huston ‘s birthday, and so, a little tribute to his 1972 western The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean. This is a very interesting artifact, very much of a piece with the other new westerns of its time.
