Over 10 years ago I bought a CD of solitaire games from a company named Masque. It contained a solitaire game called "Ant's Solitaire". That game was a single player solitaire styled game. I enjoyed playing it.

Sometime around 2017 I told my grandson Donevin about it, and we spent hours working out how the game would work for multiple players competing against each other. We wanted to come up with a set of rules that would apply to 2, 3, 4, etc. number of players. We finally arrived at the a set of rules that seemed to work. We decided to call the multi-player version of the game "Lucky Paw".

Fast forward several years to the Covid lockdown period. During that time I created my first online card game ("Bill's Hand and Foot Card Game"). Finally, in 2023 I decided to create an online version of the Lucky Paw game. The rules are pretty much the same as those developed by Donevin and me. I did add a couple of twists - optional use of jokers and an optional rule allowing a player to pass even if they have a playable card.

I would like to recognize Nicu Buculei. The card images in this game (and in all my card games) were created by Nicu.
