Free Games How to play TriPeaks
TriPeaks deals 28 cards into three little mountains: three peak tops, two rows tucked beneath them, and an open bottom row of ten face-up cards. One more card starts the pile, and the remaining 23 wait in the stock.
There is only one move to learn: tap any open card that is one higher or one lower than the pile card. It hops onto the pile and becomes the new number to match. Suits and colors never matter. When a card is cleared, any card it was pinning down turns face up — that is how you dig your way up to the three peaks. Clear all 28 cards and you win. When nothing on the board connects, tap the stock to deal a fresh pile card.
One higher, one lower — and Aces wrap around
If the pile shows a 7, you may play a 6 or an 8. The clever part is that the ranks join in a circle: an Ace connects to both a King and a Two. So on a King you can play a Queen or an Ace, and on an Ace you can play a King or a Two. Long chains like Queen → King → Ace → Two are the most satisfying moves in the game.
Gentle tips
- Look for a run before you deal. Each stock card is precious, so play every chain you can find first — the Hint button will happily point one out.
- Prefer moves that turn a card over. When two cards would both work, pick the one that frees a face-down card underneath.
- Clear toward the peaks. Working the tall stacks early opens more of the board than nibbling at the edges.
- Undo is unlimited. Rewind as far as you like and try another path — experimenting is part of the fun.
Calm by design
No timer, no score pressure, and running out of cards is never a “game over” — a friendly Start fresh button simply deals a new game. If you enjoy TriPeaks, you may also like our classic Solitaire and Pyramid Solitaire, or you can browse all of our card games and every free game on the site.
