This program is a collection of twelve solitaire card games based on the classic game of "Yukon", which traditionally ranks as one of the favorite solitaires of all time. The games in this program include both familiar favorites and new games invented specifically for this collection, and available nowhere else.
All of the games share the peculiar Yukon rule that groups of cards may be moved from one tableau pile to another without having to be in sequence. Unlike games such as Klondike (i.e. "regular solitaire"), in which groups of cards may only be moved when they are in the proper order, Yukon-type games provide for much more freedom of movement. This often translates into games requiring more skill than luck. The end result is much more challenging and addictive solitaires!
Beyond sharing this common card-movement rule, the games are otherwise very different from one another, featuring different initial layouts, different foundation and tableau building rules, and different strategies.
Games include: Abacus, Alaska, Chinese Discipline, Chinese Solitaire, Chinese Torture, Queenie, Rushdike, Russian Point, Russian Solitaire, Scorpion, Wasp, and Yukon.
Besides the unique and innovative games themselves, this program offers all of the comforts and conveniences you've come to expect from a state-of-the-art solitaire collection: undo, hints, statistics, wallpaper, sound effects, extensive online help, and much more.
