β¨ KTOWERS π
okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about ktowers β the X window towers solitaire game, and honestly? she's iconic. ππ
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
ktowers
that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. no flags, no args, just vibes. πͺ
π DESCRIPTION π
Ktowers pops open a window and boom β you're in a towers solitaire game, living your best little card life. π
here's the tea on how you play:
- Clicking on a card moves it to the "best" legal play. the game literally picks for you, main character energy fr. π
- Dragging a card places it in the target stack β but only if that move is legal. no illegal nonsense allowed, periodt. π«
π¦ RULES π¦
okay so the rules, and you're gonna want to actually read these because they're giving structure:
- Tableaus build down in suit order. β¬οΈ
- Single cards may be moved among the tableaus. one at a time, bestie, one at a time. π
- Empty tableaus may be filled with Kings. π (not me manifesting a King for that empty spot)
- Stocks hold any single card each. π
- Foundations build up in suit from the Ace. β¬οΈ starting from the Ace, no skipping.
Goal: move all cards to the foundations. that's the whole quest. that's the dream. slay. π
