About Solitaire TS
It follows classic solitaire rules, and every new shuffle gives you a different layout.
Before each game you choose whether the draw pile hands you one card or three at a time. The game ends once all four suit piles are complete, and you score better the fewer moves and the less time you need.

Most of the work happens in the columns. Each column counts down in value with the colors switching, so a red 9 can go on a black 10. You can also move a whole ordered run of cards to another column, as long as the order still fits.
The draw pile is how new cards come into play. When nothing on the table can move, you keep drawing until a card fits somewhere. In three-card mode you get more cards per draw, but only the top one is open to you, and the ones under it stay stuck until you place it.
Luck plays a part too. Most deals can be solved, but some leave you with no moves even if you played well, and then the only way forward is a fresh shuffle.
