        Deal
        This game uses a single 52-card deck with all 4 suits.
        All cards are dealt directly to the tableau across 7 columns.
        The leftmost column has a single card dealt face up.
        The remaining 6 columns have 5 cards each dealt face up at the bottom, and have face down cards underneath them.
        The second column on the tableau has 1 face down card, and each subsequent row has 1 more face down card, to where the rightmost row has 6 face down cards.
        31 cards are dealt face up while 21 cards are dealt face down.
        Playing
        Move cards on the tableau where you have a card that is the same suit as the bottom card on another stack & is one descending in rank.
        The subsequent cards that are below the top card being moved do not adversely impact the move.
        Any card or any run of cards can be played to an open stack on the tableau.
        Aces and any subsequent cards which appear at the bottom of the stacks are automatically played to the 4 suited foundations.
        Strategy
        The name of this game is trying to play quickly since most of your game score will be based on the time it takes you to beat it.
        Try to create an open column on the tableau as early as you possibly can, as that will give you flexibility in how you play cards from the other tableau columns.
        Whenever you make a play that does away with an open column, try to ensure it either creates another open column, is working on turning up the final face-down card in a stack, or enables you to make a series of plays in a chain reaction which can enable you to turn up multiple other face down cards.
        Work on clearing cards out of the stacks with the fewest face down cards first so that you keep making open stacks to give yourself more flexibility as you progress through the game.
        Scoring
        Each card you move to a foundation is worth 10 points, for a maximum base score of 520 points.
        Each second you have remaining on the timer when you beat the game is worth 50 points.
        Target Audience
        The game is suited for players who like Russian Solitaire card games.
        This game is quite challenging and can take many plays to beat. Experienced players can win between 10% and 20% of games, while amateurs new to the game might win closer to 5% of games.

        Secret Russian is like Russian Solitaire but every other card on the tableau is face down.
        Yukon Solitaire is another similar game to Russian Solitaire. It has the same deal layout, but on the tableau you alternate suit colors rather than following suit.
        The game has no adult themed content.
