The top card of each column is turned face up, making it available for play.<\/p><div style=\"clear: both; margin: 20px 0;\"><h4 style=\"color: #4D54FBCE; margin-bottom: 10px;\">Play free games on Playgama.com<\/h4><div id=\"widget-playgama\" style=\"height: 237px;\"><\/div><\/div>\n<h3>Objective and Strategy<\/h3>\n<p>The objective is to build complete sequences from King to Ace in the same suit within the tableau, which are then moved to a foundation pile.
