The goal

Clear all three peaks by playing cards onto the draw pile, one rank higher or lower each time.

Playing

  • Tap a face-up card that is one higher or one lower than the top card of the draw pile. A 7 can go on a 6 or an 8. Suits don’t matter.
  • On Normal, Kings and Aces wrap around: a King can go on an Ace and an Ace on a King.
  • A card only turns face up once both cards covering it are gone.

Difficulty

  • Normal: Kings and Aces wrap around.
  • Hard: no wrapping, so a King only takes a Queen and an Ace only takes a 2. Chains break more often.
  • Choose in New game. Your records are kept separately for each difficulty.

The stock

  • When nothing fits, tap the stock to turn over a new card.
  • The stock doesn’t recycle, so use it wisely.

Scoring

  • Chain cards together without touching the stock. The 1st card in a chain scores 1, the 2nd scores 2, the 3rd scores 3, and so on.
  • Turning over a stock card ends the chain.
  • Clearing a peak’s top card earns +15 for each of the first two peaks and +30 for the last.

The end

  • Clear every peak to win.
  • If the stock is empty and no card fits, the game ends. Undo lets you try a different path.
