11s up (solitaire)
11s Up is a multi-level speed game using one deck of playing cards. The object of the game is to remove the entire tableau by adding groups of cards that add up to 11. Alternate names include Ace Solitaire and +11 Solitaire.
Rules[edit]
Layout[edit]
11s Up has a double diamond shaped tableau. Towards the bottom are the deck, the two dealt piles, and the discard pile.
Game-play[edit]
Remove any two or more exposed cards that add up to 11, e.g. 4♦ + 3♠ + 2♣ + 1♣ + 1♦= 11 (note: Aces are given a value of 1).
One card at a time is turned up from the deck. If the first card cannot be used, it is moved to the second dealt pile when you deal the next card. If the card in the second dealt pile cannot be used, it replaces empty spaces on the tableau. If there are no spaces available in the tableau, the card is discarded to the waste pile.
The game ends when there are no more cards in the deck and no more cards can be removed. To win the entire tableau must be removed.
Scoring[edit]
Each card removed earns points, with point values determined by where the cards are located. There are many variations of scoring, one being the following:
- Dealt Pile = 20 points
- Level 1 = 100 points
- Level 2 = 200 points
- Level 3 = 300 points
- Level 4 = 400 points
- Level 5 (top level) = 800 points
- The first time any of the 3 peak cards are removed, a bonus is rewarded.
- 100 extra points are given for each card left unused in the Stock Pile.
An alternative scoring system awards 100 points for Dealt Piles, 200-500 points for Levels 1-4 respectively, and 800 points for Level 5, with a 10,000 point bonus for removing the entire tableau (excluding the extra fields).
