Description

Sick of the same old solitaire? Then give House of Cards a shot - the game that takes solo card playing to new heights...literally. Build a house of cards using a standard deck by making sure all the high cards are on the bottom and the low cards are on top.

Instructions


Please note: Shockwave.com UNLIMITED members can play the full and complete version online.

Build a house of cards to the stars. To make a pair, click two cards of the same suit or value. To build higher, place any card as a "beam." Pairs must be supported by pairs with equal or larger values, or the pair will crumble. Beams can be any value. Bonus: pairs with a sum of 20 can be placed on top of pairs of any value and pairs with a sum of 21 can be placed anywhere and will reinforce pairs below. If a Joker is drawn, the top level of the house is blown down, two or more Jokers blow down an entire house.
