Solitaire type card game. Just put the cards in suited rows of ascending order.

The first time, I got 30 out of the 48 cards placed. Same score the second time. The third time, I managed to order 38 out of 48. The fourth time, I pulled it off and cleaned up.

Yes it's evil... addictively evil. I've always been a solitaire nut.

I'd play it if the interface weren't so excruciatingly slow.

Nice one, Foxx. Is there any kind of strategy for it?

Here, I meant to mention there is a Java version of the game, which doesn't run on my work computer but generally runs much faster.

As far as strategy is concerned, follow the "thread" of a move and see what kinds of slots will open up. If a move will soon lead to a slot opening up behind a king as a consequence, it's probably a bad idea.
