Gameplay differs from standard Solitaire in the following ways: - Uses two decks of cards concurrently - Newly drawn cards are laid on top of existing columns rather than their own pile - Features "The Devil's Six", which are six cards in a row up top which must be sent directly to the scoring area and may never enter the field of play. This game was commissioned by Donald Rumsfeld and features video clips and audio recordings of Winston Churchill throughout a war-themed campaign mode.
