McCallitare is a very old card game no-one knows the whereabouts of. It's similar to solitaire but extremely different. The goal is to end up with one pile of cards in the end. It's only known to have happened twice. Basically, you take a full deck of cards (minus the jokers) and flip one over at a time. When consecutive cards match in number or suit, you can put them on top of eachother, starting with the last flipped card. If your card is 3 away from one that is the same number or suit, you may combine those as well. It is a one person game. Once you can't make any more moves, your game is over
If I start with a 5 of spades and I flip another card which is a 7 of diamonds, I place the 7 to the right of the 5. Then I flip again, and I get a 6 of spades. I can't do anything so it goes next to the 7. Next, I flip a queen of spades. This card can go on the 5or the 6. I place it on the 5 because why not. So now from left to right I have Queen of spades, 7 of diamonds, 6 of spades. I keep going till I run out of cards to flip. That's McCallitare
