About this game

Goal
Sort each suite in a sequence horizontally from Ace through King.

Rules
- Ace is the first card in a suite and it is placed on the left to start the series.
- A card can only move into a gap if the card on the left of the gap is the previous lower card of the same suite. Ex: If the card on the left of the gap is 4 of hearts, tap on 5 of hearts to move it in the gap to the right of 4 of hearts.
- No cards can move behind the King.
- When all four gaps are behind the Kings, there are no more moves left and game is over.

How to play
- At the beginning of the game, the cards are shuffled randomly and laid out on the table evenly in four rows. The first position on the left is a “gap” or an empty spot. At all times, there are four gaps in the game.
- To move a card, just tap on it. The card will be placed in the correct location automatically.
- Initial move is to place an Ace into the first gap on the left edge of a row.
- Relocated Aces create new gaps and you can use these gaps to move the cards around.
- Keep rearranging the cards to sort the entire deck.
- Solitaire is solved when each row contains only one suit in ascending order from Ace to King. The last position in the row will be a gap.
- Start a new game, tap on “New Game” in the message box or the play button on the top right corner.
- The game will be over before the solitaire is solved if there are no more moves left. Then, you have two options: 1. Start a new game or 2. "Reshuffle" if you want to continue the same game with the Reshuffle option enabled. This will reshuffle all cards that are not yet sorted. Reshuffle will not work if there are still available moves left.

Features
- Re-shuffle option available in the settings.
- The player can display hints to easily identify the cards that can be moved.
- Two view options are available: Full Card View or Partial Card View. Partial Card View is recommended for a close up view of the suite and rank.
- To start a new game when in the middle of a game, tap the “play” button on the top right.
- Best score can be reset in the settings.

Score
Score is displayed on the upper left. If the hand is reshuffled, the points for each subsequent move decreases. To get the maximum points, solve the solitaire with no reshuffles.

Ratings and reviews

Not the version of Gaps/Montana I want, but you get a star for allowing 5 shuffles. I'm tired of play always being limited to the right because the kings will always be stuck in the middle making the hand unwinnable without 4 or more shuffles. 😤 Hoyle allows play to the left so why can't mobile game developers? 🧐

No ads is a huge plus. Teeny tiny playing field drops it down a star.

Great! Very intuitive.
