🃏 Game Objective & Card Values

The primary goal of Pyramid Solitaire is to dismantle the card pyramid by pairing available cards whose combined point value equals 13.

Point Values:

Numbered Cards (2–10): Worth their face value (e.g., 8 + 5 = 13).
Aces: Worth 1 point (Pairs with a Queen).
Jacks: Worth 11 points (Pairs with a 2).
Queens: Worth 12 points (Pairs with an Ace).
Kings: Worth 13 points (Kings can be discarded individually with a single click—no pair needed!).

🕹️ How to Play Pyramid Solitaire (Step-by-Step Guide)

Mastering Pyramid Solitaire requires visual keenness, number calculation, and strategic planning. Follow these basic rules to clear the board:

1. Identify Uncovered Cards

Only cards that are completely exposed (not overlapped by any card below them) can be selected for matching. As you clear overlapping cards, the cards above them become unlocked and active.

2. Match Cards to Total 13

Select two exposed cards that add up to 13 to remove them from the board.

Example Matches: 7 + 6, 9 + 4, 10 + 3, Jack + 2, or Queen + Ace.

3. Clear Kings Instantly

Because Kings are worth 13 points on their own, clicking on an exposed King immediately removes it from the pyramid without requiring a second card.

4. Draw from the Stock Deck

When no valid pairs are exposed on the pyramid, click the Stock Pile to draw cards. You can match exposed pyramid cards with the top card of the Stock or Waste pile to keep your combo going.

5. Clear the Pyramid to Win

Work your way from the bottom row all the way to the top peak. Once the final card at the top of the pyramid is removed, you win the game!

💡 Expert Strategies & Winning Tips

Improve your win rate and solve tough pyramid layouts with these tactical strategies:

Pro Tip: Always prioritize removing cards directly from the Pyramid over matching cards from the Stock Pile! Clearing pyramid cards unlocks deeper layers of hidden cards.

Expose Hidden Cards Early: Focus on clearing pairs that unlock blocked cards in higher rows. Unlocking more choices gives you a wider variety of matching options.
Remove Kings Immediately: Whenever a King becomes exposed, remove it right away to clear board clutter and open up adjacent positions.
Plan Stock Pile Draws: Look at the exposed cards in the pyramid before drawing from the stock. Try to remember which card ranks you need most so you don't miss key pairing opportunities.
Equalize Both Sides: Try to clear cards evenly across both the left and right sides of the pyramid rather than digging deeply into just one side.

What cards add up to 13 in Pyramid Solitaire?

The pairs that total 13 are: 12 + 1 (Queen + Ace), 11 + 2 (Jack + 2), 10 + 3, 9 + 4, 8 + 5, and 7 + 6. Kings are worth 13 points alone.

Do I need to clear the Stock Pile to win?

If no valid pairs can be made between exposed pyramid cards and the waste pile, and the stock pile is depleted, the game ends. You can restart the board or try a new random deal.
