Alternations is like some bizarre combination of Klondike and FreeCell. In alternation, half the cards on the table are face-up and the other half are face-down, in of all things, an alternating pattern.

Alternations gets its names from the alternating pattern that the cards make when first dealt at the beginning of play. It is unlike classic Solitaire in that it uses two decks of cards instead of just one.

To play by hand, you'll need two decks of cards (minus the Jokers). Shuffle the cards completely, then begin to assemble the columns. First, deal 7 cards across face-up. Next, deal 7 cards across face-down. You'll repeat this alternating pattern 5 more times. At the end, you'll have a total of 7 columns and 7 rows. For your rows, your very first and very last rows will both be face-up. Clear enough space on your table for 8 foundation piles and you'll be ready to start.

The rules

In order to deal this game, you need to shuffle two standard fifty two card decks together.

The game begins with forty nine cards laid in seven columns of seven cards each. The top, third, fifth, and bottom cards in each column are face up, while the second, fourth, and sixth cards are face down. The cards alternate: Up, Down, Up, Down, Up, Down, Up. This pattern, of alternating face up and face down cards, is what gives the game its name of Alternations.

When dealing the cards, leave room at the top and left hand side. The left hand side will be where you put the stock pile – the remaining cards after you deal the initial seven columns. The top is where you will build your eight foundation piles.

The game is similar to classic solitaire in that as the ace cards become available, you place them at the top as foundation cards to collect cards within that suit. Once a foundation ace is at the top, you can put the other cards in the suit on top of it in numerical order (Ace, Two, Three, etc.). This creates foundation piles. The object is to get all the cards in these eight foundation piles at the top, one for each suit of the two decks.

You can place cards on top of one another in a descending sequence, playing off the available bottom card in each column. It does not matter what suit the cards are. For example, you can put an 8 of diamonds on a 9 of jacks, just as you can put an 8 of hearts or an 8 of spades. There are some versions where you must alternate colors as you build sequences, similarly to classic solitaire. In this case, you could only put an 8 of diamonds or an 8 of hearts (red) on a 9 of jacks or a 9 of spades (black). When playing with a standard deck of cards, you can decide which of these versions is better for you.

When you move a card off a face down card, the face down card should be flipped over and be revealed. A face down card can only be flipped when there is nothing on top of it.

As you play, cards from the stock are dealt one at a time. If you cannot use the card, it is left in the waste pile. The stock pile is only dealt once – there is no redeal.

The game is won when all the cards have been put in sequential order of the suits at the top in the foundation piles, beginning with the aces and ending with the kings.

Once the entire stock pile has been dealt, the game is over. If there is no way to get all the cards into the foundation piles at the top at this point, the game has been lost.
