Short: Simple and addictive solitaire card game
Sea Haven Towers
Amiga version by David Walthour
This game is freeware.
The object of the game is to remove all of the cards from the playing area
and onto the four finished suit piles in sequential order from Ace to King.
The game starts with 50 of the cards placed in ten stacks of five cards each.
the remaining 2 cards occupy two of the four "Towers" located in the top
middle of the window. Cards are moved by clicking on them with the mouse
and draging them to where they are moved to. Illegal moves result in the
card returning to where it was moved from. Any single card can be moved
to any free space in the four Towers. Cards can only be moved from either
the Towers or from other stacks to the stacks if they are being placed on
the next higher card of the same suit, i.e., the 4 of clubs can only be
placed on the 5 of clubs. Multiple cards can be moved between the stacks
only if there number of cards being moved doesn't exceed the number of free
Tower positions by more than one card. As the lowest remaining cards in a
particular suit are freed, i.e., they have no cards on top of them, they are
moved to the finished suit piles automatically. When all of the cards have
been moved to these piles, the game is finished.
Help is provided by being able to start a game over or by being able to
back up 1 move at a time. Stats are kept on the number of games won
and lost and on the winning and losing streaks.
This game may not look good on machines that do not have some kind of flicker
reducing or eliminating device.
Enjoy!
