Free Cell Games

Free Cell solitaire games are similar to the Klondike variants where you must arrange the layout into four Foundations from Ace to King in the same suit. However, only one card may be moved at a time. Since this makes it difficult, these games provide a certain number of reusable open spaces (free cells) that may each hold any one card.
Sea Towers
(aka Seahaven Towers) is quite a challenge. It will take careful planning to beat it.
Penguin
One Foundation card is buried deep. Can you free the "Penguin" card and win?
