Description
Solitaire King: Pyramid is a freeware, mouse controlled, single player card game, it can be played in a window or in full screen mode. This title was one of a number of freeware games that the developer released to promote interest in the full product Solitaire King which had thirty-one different games and over eighty variations thereof.
The game is played with a standard deck of fifty-two cards of which twenty eight are dealt in the form of a pyramid starting with one card on the top row, two on the second through to seven on the bottom row. The remaining twenty four cards are placed face down as the draw pile. The object of the game is to pair up all the cards such that the add up to thirteen, Kings count as thirteen so when they become free they can be discarded instantly; Queens count as twelve and make a thirteen when paired with an ace; Jacks count as eleven and make a thirteen when paired with a two; tens pair with a three and so on.
There are two game options, in the first the player turns over one card at a time from the draw pile and has only one chance to complete the game, in the second the player draws every third card from the draw pile but can have as many passes through the pile as they need.
The game has save/load and an undo function but has no sound and no statistics are kept. It is played entirely with the mouse.
