About this game
A quick, sharp patience that rewards a cool head. Four cards are dealt in a row. Whenever two of the showing cards share a suit, you may throw away the lower one, with Aces counting as the highest of all. When you can’t discard any more, deal four new cards on top of the piles. An empty pile can be filled with any top card from elsewhere, and that’s where the real decisions lie. Work through the whole deck; the ideal finish is four lonely Aces and nothing else.

Family tips
Empty piles are your only real freedom, so use them carefully. The best card to move into a gap is one that is covering something useful, especially a card that could then be discarded.
Get Aces to the bottom of their own piles when you can. An Ace can never be discarded, so one sitting on top of other cards traps them forever; moving it into an empty pile solves that.
Before dealing the next four, make every discard and move you can. Each deal buries the current top cards, and anything you leave behind may never surface again.
