La Belle Lucie is a solitaire card game that requires both skill and strategy. It is played with a deck of 52 playing cards and aims to arrange all cards in 18 piles, forming a tableau. The game begins with 17 of the piles containing three cards each and one pile containing a single card. Only the topmost card of each pile is accessible.
Cards can be moved to the foundation piles in ascending order and by matching suit. Empty tableau spaces can be filled with any available card. The game challenges players to think ahead, consider their moves carefully, and utilize available spaces wisely to successfully move all cards to the foundation, ultimately leading to a win.
