Project 1: Solitaire - Joker Edition


Solitaire Joker Edition is a sub-game created by Group 3. The game is meant to be a modified version of the original solitaire game, popularized in 18th century. The game is meant to be played alone. There is no age limit to play the game. The game consists of being a regular solitaire game but with a joker card added in, that can potentially sabotage the system the player has set up for themselves to win.


When starting out, the player will set up 7 rows of cards, with the next row having 1 more card than the previous row; next the player will set up 4 empty card spots on top of the rows, this will be the game's objective. The remaining card in the deck will have a joker card added into it later and placed to the side.
If the player manages to find the joker card, they will need to re-shuffle the deck that is placed on the side. This is done to prolong the game and break the player's plan for beating the game. The joker card will only be placed in the deck while its being shuffled 3 times, after 3 times it is found, the card will be removed, allowing the game to be played regularly.

The game objective is simple, it is similar to regular solitaire, as the player needs to place all cards on top of the A cards with different symbols. The cards when placing on top of each other, must alternate the colors with each other.

The game is lost when there are no moves that the player can make to help further the game. This happens when all cards on the deck cannot be placed anywhere on the playing field, or when the player cannot make any moves at all.
