Welcome to Captain Salty

Version 0.1 psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadoloop

This solitaire game of mystic (and possibly extra-terrestrial) origin was brought to America by intrepid explorer and adventurer Sir Ramjet. He passed it to a man named Tungsten P. Logic, who would later popularize the game among ligers (it's like a lion and a tiger mixed...bred for its skills in magic). After a long and arduous (and ultimately in vain) search for a solitaire game or collection which included this variant, Mr. Logic decided to code his own. The resulting webpage can be found here:

Click on the card you want to move into a free spot. Free spots can only be filled by the card which follows suit and number of the one before it. Nothing can fill a blank space if a King is in front of it. Try to arrange the four rows from two to King in suit. Click on "End Turn" if you run out of moves. You only get three turns, but the game doesn't hold you to it...only your sense of self-worth does.

It uses a pop up window, so depending on how vehement your pop up blocker is, it may not work. No cookies required, however. Other issues with this extraordinarily complicated Javascript game involve browser-compatibility. Both Safari and IE for Mac OS X will not run the game very well (or in the case of IE, at all). Fortunately, Firefox and Camino seem to run it perfectly. Firefox also works on Linux and, I would presume, on Windows as well, although I have no empirical evidence to support that. Feel free to leave any comments re: browser compatibility or otherwise below. Thanks to oxymoron for the graphics.
