One higher, one lower – that’s all
TriPeaks is one of the most popular solitaire games because it is easy to learn and quick to play. Twenty-eight cards form three peaks; the bottom row is face up. Move any free card to the waste pile if it is one higher or one lower than the top card – suits don’t matter. When you’re stuck, draw a new card from the stock.
The fun is in the streaks: every card in a run scores more than the last, and clearing the top of a peak gives a bonus. Plan ahead – choosing which 7 to play can open a much longer run. With “King and Ace connect” on, you can go K–A–2 and back. Undo and hints are always available, and your best score is saved.
How to use
- Tap a free card that is one higher or lower than the open card.
- Build long runs – each card in a streak scores more.
- No move? Tap the stock to turn a new card (the streak resets).
- Clear all 28 cards to win; unused stock cards give bonus points.
Ideas for using it
- Coffee break. a game takes 3–5 minutes.
- Strategy. prefer moves that uncover face-down cards.
- Relaxing. no timer pressure – the clock only shows how long you played.
- Classic mode. switch off King–Ace wrap for a harder game.
