Crescent Solitaire is a two-deck solitaire game where the aim is to move all cards from the 16 crescent-shaped Tableau piles to eight Foundation piles. The Foundations are initially established with the Aces and Kings dealt at the start, with Aces building up in suit and Kings building down. The tableau piles are built in alternating colors, and only the top card of each pile is available for play. This variation allows six wrap-around moves, when a bottom card is moved to the top of every Tableau pile.
