Simplicity is a variant of Four Seasons that is well-named. Wins are common and you won’t have to work too hard to get them.


Layout
Place twelve cards face up in two rows of six; these are the tableaus. The four foundations are above them; place one card face up in the first foundation as a starter. Keep the rest of the deck in your hand, ready for dealing into the discard pile.
Play
Top cards of tableaus and the discard pile are available for play onto tableaus and foundations. Tableaus build down alternating red and black. Tableaus build circularly (so that King may be played on Ace). Any available card may be played to an empty tableau.
The foundations build up, following suit. The rank of the first card played onto any empty foundation pile must match the rank of the card placed on the first foundation in the initial layout. (For example, if the first card placed on a foundation pile is an eight, then eights must also be played onto the other empty foundations.) Building is circular, with Ace following King.
Dealing
Deal one card from the deck onto the discard pile at any time. There are no redeals; when the deck is empty, no more dealing is allowed.
Goal
The goal is to move all the cards onto the foundations.
