What counts as success
Remove all 28 pyramid cards. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
A walkthrough of the rules
- Only uncovered cards are selectable. Pairs total 13; a king removes alone.
- Click an exposed card or eligible pair to remove it.
- Draw when useful.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
Your inputs
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Use the control method described here for this activity. Check any mode label before starting.
An example before you play
An exposed queen pairs with an ace; a jack pairs with a 2. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Read the matching step again.
Notice this detail
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
