KMONTANA(6)

✨ KMONTANA 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to kmontana — it's the X window montana high solitaire game, section 6 of the games manual, and honestly? it's giving cozy little card game energy and i'm obsessed. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

kmontana

that's it. that's the whole thing. no flags, no args, no drama. just run it. periodt. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so kmontana pops up a whole window for you and it's a montana solitaire game, okay? main character energy from the very first card. 🫶

here's the tea on how you actually play it:

• Clicking on a card moves it to the "best" legal play — like, the game does the thinking for you, slay.
• Dragging a card places it in the target stack — but only if it's legal, bestie. illegal drags simply do not happen. 💀

👑 RULES 👑

okay listen close, this is the important part. 📢

• the top cards of tableaus are available to you, they're the ones you can touch.
• an available card may be discarded if it has the same suit and a lower rank than <em>another available card</em>. matching suit, lower rank, that's the vibe check. ✅
• Empty tableaus may be filled with any available card. anything goes. no cap.
• ⚠️ and here's the plot twist: Aces rank high — like, above Kings. yes fr fr. the Ace is the queen of this deck, literally. 👑

🎴 dealing 🎴

• to deal four more cards, you click the deck. four. not one. not three. four. 💅
• but — dealing is not allowed until empty tableaus have been filled (<em>if possible</em>). so fill those gaps first or the deck is gonna ignore you entirely. 🙈

🏆 the goal 🏆

discard all the cards except for the four Aces. that's it. that's the win condition. get everything gone, keep the Aces, ascend. ✨👑
