PySol - Rules for Interlock

# Interlock

Klondike type. 1 deck. Unlimited redeals.

### Object

Move all cards to the foundations.

### Rules

The tableau piles are built in a pyramid-esque layout, with eleven cards in the top layer, ten cards in the middle, and nine on the bottom. Each card forms a tableau pile which can be built down by alternate color. The three bottom layer cards can be filled with a king when empty, but the remaining layers cannot be filled.

Though all cards are dealt face-up, cards in the lower layers cannot be moved until the cards on top of them are moved. However, if the only card or sequence overlapping a card can legally be played on it, that sequence can be moved down in a dropdown move.

Foundations are built up in suit from Ace to King.

Cards are dealt from the stock one at a time, and can be moved to foundations or exposed tableau piles. You can go through the deck as many times as needed.

The game is won when all cards are moved to the foundations.

### Notes

Interlock is an original game that's a more straightforward variant of other interlocking tableau games, such as Guardian or Love a Duck.
