Tap pairs of cards that add up to 13.
In Pyramid solitaire, the cards are traditionally set out in a pyramid shape of 28 cards. The aim of Pyramid solitaire is to remove all the cards from the pyramid. Cards can only be removed in pairs that add up to 13. For example, a 7 and a 6 can be removed as a pair. In this game: A=1, J=11, Q=12 and K=13. As the King already equals 13 it can be removed on its own. If there are no moves available you can turn over one card from the draw pile and pair that with a card in the pyramid.
Pyramid Solitaire is a captivating single-player card game that combines strategy and logical thinking. Classically the game presents a unique challenge with its distinctive pyramid layout, where 28 cards are arranged in seven rows, in this version however there are multiple layouts to try. Your goal is to clear the entire pyramid by matching pairs of cards that add up to 13. The game features special card values: Aces count as 1, Jacks as 11, Queens as 12, and Kings as 13 (which can be removed individually). When you’re stuck, the draw pile offers a lifeline, allowing you to reveal new cards and create potential matches. Success requires careful planning and strategic use of the draw pile, making each game a fresh puzzle to solve. Whether you’re a seasoned card player or new to solitaire, Pyramid Solitaire offers an engaging challenge that will keep you coming back for more.
