Pyramid Solitaire

The objective in Pyramid Solitaire is to clear the pyramid of cards by selecting pairs that add up to a total of 13.

Card values are straightforward: Kings are worth 13 and can be removed by themselves. Queens are 12, Jacks are 11, and all other number cards are valued at their face value (e.g., an Ace is 1, a 2 is 2, etc.). To make a pair, you could match a Queen with an Ace, or a 6 with a 7.

You can only select cards that are fully uncovered in the pyramid. If you run out of available matches on the board, click the stock pile at the bottom to draw a new card. You can use this drawn card to make a pair with any available card in the pyramid or a previously drawn card from the waste pile.

For a winning strategy, always prioritize moves that will uncover the most new cards. If you have a choice between two pairs, select the one that opens up more of the pyramid for future moves. You can cycle through the stock pile multiple times, so plan your moves carefully to clear the entire board.
