About Pyramid Solitaire Classic
Thirteen is the magic number here. Pyramid Solitaire Classic has you pairing cards that add up to that total so the whole pyramid disappears, one pair after another.
Card values follow a simple scale: numbered cards count as their face value, an ace is 1, a jack is 11 and a queen is 12. Kings are worth 13 on their own, which means they can leave the table without a partner. When you run out of pairs, the draw pile gives you a fresh face-up card. It is an easy game to learn and a satisfying one to finish cleanly.

Tips for Pyramid Solitaire Classic
- Count which values you still need before you draw; knowing what is left saves moves.
