A Pyramid Solitaire game with Aliens. Combine 2 free cards to a total value of 13. Value of the cards is the face value and a J=11, Q=12, A=1; the K=13 and can be removed as a single card. Overview: Alien Pyramid Solitaire is a fun, engaging variation of the classic Pyramid Solitaire card game, infused with an intergalactic twist. In this HTML5 version, players are tasked with clearing a pyramid-shaped deck of cards by matching pairs that sum up to 13. The game incorporates a colorful, alien-themed aesthetic, with vibrant graphics and animations that give it a futuristic and quirky atmosphere. With a relaxing pace and accessible gameplay, Alien Pyramid Solitaire offers a mix of strategy, skill, and a little bit of luck. Objective: The goal of Alien Pyramid Solitaire is to clear the pyramid of cards by removing pairs that add up to 13. The game begins with a pyramid of cards dealt face-up, and players must match pairs of cards to remove them from the pyramid. The game continues until all cards are cleared or no more valid moves are possible. Special cards like Kings and Jokers add a unique layer of strategy to the game. Gameplay Mechanics: Card Removal: Pyramid Layout: The game features a pyramid of 28 cards (7 rows), with each card partially overlapping the one beneath it. To remove cards from the pyramid, players must find pairs of cards that add up to 13. For example, a 9 and a 4, a Jack (11) and a 2, or a Queen (12) and Ace (1). Kings are special and can be removed by themselves, as they represent 13 points. They do not need a pair. Available Moves: Only uncovered cards (those not blocked by other cards) can be selected for removal. This means that to access hidden cards, you must strategically clear lower levels of the pyramid first. If there are no valid moves left, the game is over, and players must restart or reset the pyramid layout. Aliens and Theme: Alien Pyramid Solitaire is set against a space-themed backdrop, featuring animated alien characters, planets, and starry skies. The cards are designed with alien motifs and symbols, making it a visually fun version of the classic Pyramid Solitaire. Alien characters appear in the background and can offer helpful hints or simply add to the whimsical atmosphere of the game. Power-ups and Special Cards: In some versions, there may be special cards or power-ups that help players clear the pyramid faster or unlock cards: Jokers can serve as wild cards and be used as a substitute for any other card in a pair. Shuffle power-ups may allow the player to shuffle the deck to create new pair opportunities. Hints: If youre stuck, some versions of the game include hint buttons that show a possible match for the next move. Winning and Scoring: The game ends when all cards are removed from the pyramid or when no more valid moves are possible. The faster you remove cards, the higher your score will be. Points are awarded based on how efficiently you clear the pyramid and how many moves are required to win. You may also be awarded bonus points for achieving certain conditions, like clearing the pyramid with no errors or using fewer moves. Hints and Strategy: It’s important to plan your moves carefully, as removing the wrong pair can block important cards later on. Strategic planning involves focusing on clearing lower rows first to reveal more cards and ensure you have the most possible options available.
