# Snake (Die Schlange)

FreeCell type. 2 decks. No redeal.

### Object

Move all cards to the foundations.

### Quick Description

Like FreeCell, but with 2 decks, and empty rows are not filled.

### Rules

All cards are dealt to 9 piles at the start of the game, each King starting a new pile. To compensate for this there are 7 free cells which can hold any - and just one - card.

Piles build down by alternate color, and an empty space cannot be filled.

The number of cards you can move as a sequence is restricted by the number of free cells - the number of free cells required is the same as if you would make an equivalent sequence of moves with single cards.

### History

This is a FreeCell type game of German origin. It is related to Cat's Tail.
