Queen of Italy

A two-deck solitaire with a terrace of eleven cards and eight foundations. Choose a rank to anchor all foundations, then build each one upward in alternating colours — wrapping from King back to Ace. Tableau columns build downward in alternating colours; gaps fill automatically from the stock.

How Queen of Italy plays

Two decks provide eight foundations, nine tableau columns, and an eleven-card face-up terrace. Choose one of four exposed cards as the foundation base; the other three start tableau columns. Five stock cards seed more columns, leaving one empty.

Foundations and terrace

Foundations build upward from the chosen rank in alternating colors, with King-to-Ace wraparound. They do not require a matching suit. Only the top terrace card is available, and it can move to a foundation only. Tableau cards build down in alternating colors without wraparound; an empty column accepts any card. Stock draws to waste without a redeal.
