King Albert (card game)

King Albert is a patience or card solitaire using a deck of 52 playing cards of the open packer type.

It is a conventional building game,[2] and is said to be named after Albert I of Belgium and is a variant of Somerset.

The aim, as in most patience or solitaire games, is to release the aces to the foundations and build each of them up by suit to Kings.

Building on the tableau is down by alternating colors and only one card can be moved at a time.

Raglan is a popular variant of King Albert, and makes the game easier and achievable by starting with the Aces on the foundations.
