American Toad
A two-deck patience with 8 tableau columns that build down in the same suit with wrapping (Ace follows King). The first card placed on a foundation determines the starting rank for all same-suit foundations, which build upward in suit. A 20-card reserve automatically fills empty tableau columns. Draw one card at a time from the stock — only two passes are allowed.

How American Toad plays
Two decks supply eight tableau columns, eight foundations, a twenty-card reserve, and a draw-one stock. Tableau cards build down in the same suit with wraparound, including King on Ace. Only one card moves at a time.
Foundations and refills
The first foundation card of each suit chooses the base rank for that suit's two foundations. Different suits may have different base ranks. Empty tableau columns refill from the reserve, then from waste when the reserve is empty. A tableau card cannot be moved directly into an empty column.
How American Toad compares
- Canfield — one deck and one shared foundation base rank
- Variegated Demon — two decks with Ace foundations and different tableau building
