Pyramid Solitaire: instructions and practice

Begin with the objective. Remove all 28 pyramid cards. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Check the relevant controls before continuing. Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Only uncovered cards are selectable. Pairs total 13; a king removes alone. Use another round to revisit a decision.

Pyramid, stock and waste; one stock recycle. Free solo play, no wagering.

Give this approach a try

Work at your own pace. Tap exposed cards that satisfy the removal rule shown above. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.
