Pyramid Solitaire is a classic card game that challenges players to strategically dismantle a pyramid of cards from the bottom up. The objective is to find and remove pairs of exposed cards that sum up to 13. The unique exception to this rule is the king, which can be discarded on its own, given its inherent value of 13.
In Pyramid Solitaire, players have the advantage of flipping through the bottom two decks of cards as many times as needed. This feature adds a layer of strategy, allowing players to search for the necessary cards to continue dismantling the pyramid. The card values are straightforward: the ace counts as 1, followed by the numerical cards up to 10, the jack counts as 11, the queen as 12, and the king, as mentioned, holds a value of 13.
The game keeps track of several key metrics to enhance the competitive aspect: the number of moves made, the total playing time, and the points earned for each card pair removed. Each game begins with a fresh shuffle of the deck, ensuring a unique challenge every time. However, it's worth noting that not all pyramids can be fully solved, adding an element of luck to the strategic gameplay.
