The Deal
Using one deck, each of seven Columns is dealt 3 cards. In the first four Columns, the first card is dealt face down - The Scorpion's tail. All other cards are dealt face up. All other cards will remain in the Stock.
Columns
Columns are built DOWN in the SAME SUIT. For example, a 6 of clubs may only be placed onto a 7 of clubs.
Any number of face up cards may be moved whether in sequence or not provided the above build rule is applied.
When a face down card is the topmost card in a Column, it is flipped face up.
Empty Columns may be filled with Kings.
One point is scored for each card built within a Column starting with a King. For example, if a Column has a K, Q, and J of the same suit in sequence then three points are scored for that combination.
Stock
When play comes to a standstill (or sooner if desired,) clicking on the Stock deals one card to each Column.
