Vertigo is a variant of solitaire Volcano and Mega-Volcano played with 6 or 9 stashes.
Instead of capturing pieces, Vertigo is all about building single color towers.
What you need
5 Treehouse sets and a set of Volcano caps.
Terminology
A tower is a stack of 5 trees of the same color. This is the way a Treehouse stash is sold, except for being one color.
Setup
Same as Volcano or Mega-Volcano.
Play
Same as solitaire Volcano, except
- When a Volcano erupts, pieces are not captured, they remain where they land.
Ending the Game
The game ends as soon as all pieces are part of a tower and each tower is topped with a black volcano cap.
