🔺 Pyramid Solitaire

Pyramid Solitaire is a quick number-matching classic. Remove cards by pairing two exposed cards that add up to 13; a King (13) removes by itself. When you run out of moves, draw from the stock to the waste—the top waste card can pair with an exposed card.

🎯 Objective

Clear the entire pyramid by making 13s.

📜 How to Play

1. Only exposed cards (not covered by other cards) can be used.
2. Values: A=1, J=11, Q=12, K=13. Valid pairs include A+Q, 2+J, 3+10, 4+9, 5+8, 6+7. Kings remove solo.
3. Click two exposed cards totaling 13 to remove them.
4. When stuck, draw one card from the stock to the waste. You may pair the top waste card with any exposed pyramid card to make 13.
5. Keep matching until no cards remain.

💡 Strategy Tips

• Prioritize pairs that uncover deeper rows of the pyramid.
• Track 13-complements (e.g., if you use a 5, you’ll need an 8 later)—avoid stranding singletons.
• Use Kings smartly to free space without consuming complements.
• Before drawing, scan for chains (e.g., remove 6+7 to reveal a 5+8 pair).
