Eight Off (Relaxed) Solitaire

Open information, four free cells, almost no luck.

Eight Off Relaxed is the friendly version of Eight Off - same eight-cell, build-by-suit FreeCell variant, but with the relaxation suite (undo, autoplay). The eight free cells already make Eight Off forgiving; relaxed mode pushes it into genuinely chill territory.
