'Les Huits' is a patience game described in the Pan Book of Card Games. I think it is a very good game: it can come out half the time if you take every opportunity to order the cards in sequences, and it can seem impossible but come out when the last card is dealt.

I could not find Les Huits on PySolFC. There is a one-pack game called Six by Six with similar rules. I use a Mac, and PySolFC had problems running on Macs, so I wrote eights.cpp which runs using ANSI-art on a terminal.
