Cal's Brain Strain v3.01 ReadMe
Solitaires differ widely in the opportunities they afford for the
exercise of skill. Some are purely mechanical, while others torture
the mind.
Cal's Brain Strain is a variation of Calculation Solitaire.
"Calculation stands at the top of the list of games that give
opportunity for skill."
So says the world's leading authority on cards & gambling, John Scarne,
in his classic work, Scarne's Encyclopedia of Card Games. You've played
all the other solitaires - but are you good enough for the king of them
all?

using a custom card back, increase the number of colors your
video card is running in.
4) To improve animation performance, play the game with a 256-color video
resolution.
