Pyramid is a patience or solitaire game of the Simple Addition family, where the object is to get all the cards from the pyramid to the foundation. If you get to a point where there are no more legal moves, the game is over.The initial layout of the game of Pyramid Continue making matches and working your way through the pyramid until you’ve matched and discarded all of the cards in the pyramid, stock pile, and waste pile. You can use the top card on either the original leftover pile or the waste pile to make matches, and you can make a match. If you’re unable to use that card, move it off of the stock pile into a “waste” pile next to it to reveal the next top card on the stock pile. You can also use the top card on the stock pile to make matches. Any free Kings can be moved to the discard pile by themselves-they don’t need to be matched with another card. When you make a match that adds up to 13, move those 2 cards off to the side to the discard pile. Only free cards, or cards that aren’t covered by another card, can be matched into pairs. Aces are worth 1, Jacks are worth 11, Queens are worth 12, and Kings are worth 13. The goal of the game is to match the cards into pairs that add up to 13. Place the pile of leftover cards face up to the side to form the stock pile. To play Pyramid Solitaire, first deal out 28 cards in a 7-tier pyramid, starting with a single card at the top and working your way to the bottom. Its highly important to draw the King card from the stock pile or pyramid as soon as it's free on the board, assuming the cards touching the kings edges have been claimed already.And remind yourself that kings can quickly be drawn without any other card. If you've written down Queen-Ace, make sure that Ace-Queen is also on your list. Even write down matches where two cards values equal thirteen but are in reverse order.Every time you play a board, keep this list available near you to see if there are available matches and (especially at first) keep asking yourself "Are there any matches on the board based on the list?" Watch each card separately and the same question until you have mastered all available matches. Make a list of all available matches of cards before playing a Pyramid Solitaire board.When you see a set of matches, deal with matching them up immediately. Don't try to play strategy in this game.If they are still present anyplace on the board, leave them in the deck they'll be used later. ![]() If both cards aren't anywhere to be found on the board, grab them. If you get into a situation where the two cards add up to 13 where you are drawing cards from (your hand), check the board.There are a few times when there are exceptions when you see an upcoming match from the pyramid area above, but generally work left to right. If you have two cards one next to each other on the same line, work left to right. ![]()
