Your goal

Remove all 28 pyramid cards. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.

The steps to play

  1. Only uncovered cards are selectable. Pairs total 13; a king removes alone.
  2. Click an exposed card or eligible pair to remove it.
  3. Draw when useful.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

How to interact with the game

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.

Learn from a sample situation

An exposed queen pairs with an ace; a jack pairs with a 2. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Choose a deliberate next step.

A common point of confusion

Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
