Take a closer look while playing
Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention. Keep the objective visible.
The objective of a round
Remove all 28 pyramid cards. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Step by step
- 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.
Using the playing area
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use one clear input at a time.
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. Take a moment to compare.
A common point of confusion
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the rule before repeating the action. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
