TriPeaks Solitaire: what to know before playing

Something to practise

A clear plan starts with the current position. Tap exposed cards that satisfy the removal rule shown above. Check the relevant controls before continuing.

What you are aiming for

Remove all three peaks from the tableau. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Begin with the objective.

How to proceed

  1. Take an exposed card one rank above or below the waste top. Ace and king connect in this edition.
  2. Tap exposed cards that satisfy the removal rule shown above.
  3. Draw when useful.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

Your inputs

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Take the next action only when the current step is clear. For a calm first round, focus on one decision.

Follow the example

Waste 7 accepts exposed 6 or 8. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.

A mistake to avoid

Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear.
