HOW TO PLAY. Tripeaks is a solitaire variation where you stack cards on a separate "discard" pile next to the usual draw pile.
Cards are removed from the solitaire board by comparing the up card in the discard pile with the up cards on the board.
Any up card on the board that is one less or one more than the discard up card can be removed by clicking the card.
For example, if the discard up card is a "10", then any "9" or "Jack" up card on the soliatire board can be removed. The suit of the card does not matter.
If you don't have a play, click the face-down card in the draw pile. This card becomes the new up card in the discard pile. The draw pile is never replenished, so once you reach the bottom of that pile the game is over.
You get three do-overs. To undo a move, click the "UNDO" button between the card piles.
BONUS POINTS. You can earn bonus points by completing each play as quickly as possible. Bonus time remaining is shown by the gold sheriff's badge slider at the bottom of the game.
Based on your score, a Bronze, Silver, or Gold sheriff's badge is awarded on completion of each level. The total score is calculated by adding the scores of the individual levels.
