Pyramids or Tri Peaks or Tri Pyramids Solitaire is a popular one deck solitaire game, combining elements of Pyramid Solitaire
and Golf Solitaire. Unlike many other solitiare games, Pyramids Solitaire has a great scoring system, which really encourages you to keep playing,
trying to get a better score.
The aim of Pyramids or Tri Peaks is to move all of the cards from the table to the discard while at the same time maximizing your score.
You can click only those open cards that are 1 point above or 1 point below the top card on your discard pile.
Suits are irrelevant.
Also a King can be moved onto an Ace, and vice-versa. For example, if discard is Ten and you have a Jack open,
you can click on a Jack to drop it. To maximize your score in Pyramids, try to form long sequences of moves.
The first removed card in one sequence gives you 10 points, the second one gives 20 points, then 30 points and so on.
If you open a card from the stock this sequense starts from 10 again. You have one wild card (Joker) for all deals - it can be used to drop any card on it.
Discover the ancient Egypt treasure under each peak. One deck per round.
The game assigns skill and speed bonuses - the faster you complete the game, the more points you will receive.
Your chances of winning are directly related to your skill-level in playing the game and in achieving the top score.
