Ever gotten bored with regular solitaire, and all the luck involved in winning? Five Square is different. All the cards are visible at the start of the game, most layouts are winnable, and whether you win is determined almost entirely by how well you strategize and plan. That’s why we call it the Chess of Solitaire.

And yet, unlike Chess, the rules can be described in little more than a sentence:

◆ Deal a 5x5 square of cards face up.
◆ Stack cards (or stacks of cards)…
◆ …onto others of the same suit or rank…
◆ …within the same row or column.
◆ Win by getting them all into one stack.

Thats it!

People who enjoy Sudoku puzzles, Chess puzzles, or FreeCell will love Five Square. Its a thinker’s card game.
