Rules and objective

  1. An inverted pyramid holds 28 face-up cards: seven across the top, shrinking to one in the last row.
  2. Tap two uncovered cards totaling thirteen, or a King alone. Aces count as one, Jacks eleven and Queens twelve.
  3. The exposed stock card and top waste card are both available for pairing. Removing the exposed stock card reveals the next one.
  4. Tap Next to move the exposed card to the waste and reveal another. There is one stock pass and no redeals.
  5. Clear the inverted pyramid to win. Empty pyramid spaces cannot be filled.

The table enforces legal moves and saves the current deal in this browser. Hints identify a move that is available now; they do not guarantee that the deal can still be won.

Strategy: how to play better

First priority

Look for pairs involving the lowest overlapping cards to release more choices.

Work from the overlap

Removing a card near the narrow lower end can uncover several cards above it. Compare that gain before spending a stock card.

Distinguish stock and waste

The exposed stock card and waste top are both playable. Use the one that reveals the stronger next option; there is no redeal.

Frequently asked questions

Can I pair a pyramid card with the exposed stock card?

Yes. Both the exposed stock card and the top waste card are available for a thirteen-point pair.

Can I go through the stock again?

No. Tapping Next advances the stock once; there are no redeals.
