How to play Pyramid Solitaire
Clear the pyramid by pairing exposed cards whose ranks total thirteen. The board above uses a deterministic shuffle, so a shared Deal ID recreates the same opening layout.
- Remove exposed pairs totaling 13.
- Kings are worth 13 and remove by themselves.
- Only uncovered pyramid cards are available.
- Use the stock and waste to create additional pairs.
Strategy that matters
- Favor pairs that uncover two cards instead of one.
- Count remaining ranks before spending a flexible match.
- Remove blocking Kings as soon as they become exposed.
Why this version feels different
True Solitaire keeps the playing surface in front of you. Hints describe a legal action without pretending a heuristic move guarantees a win. Undo, numbered deals, themes, card sizing, and local statistics are available without an account.
