Klondike (Draw Three)
The stricter Klondike variant: the stock deals three cards at a time, and only the top card is playable.

Spider (One Suit)
The easiest Spider variant, played with a single suit repeated across both decks.
- 2 decks

Canfield
Foundations start on a random rank instead of Aces, and a 13-card reserve pile adds real strategic pressure.

Move any card onto any other regardless of sequence, then untangle same-suit runs across seven columns.
