TriPeaks Solitaire
Play TriPeaks solitaire free online — clear three peaks by playing cards one above or below the waste pile. Streak bonuses, 24-card stock, and rank wrap (King to Ace). No download, no signup.
Quick Answer
TriPeaks Solitaire is the fast, strategic cousin of Klondike: 28 cards are dealt into three peaks and you clear them by playing any exposed card that is exactly one rank above or below the current waste card — suits never matter, and rank wraps from King down to Ace. Clearing a peak pays a bonus, long streaks multiply your score, and a 24-card stock bails you out when the board stalls. Our free version runs entirely in your browser.
How It Works
Tap a highlighted card that ranks one above or below the waste
Chain plays — each card becomes the new waste top
Draw from the stock when no card fits
Clear all 28 cards across the three peaks to win

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you play TriPeaks solitaire?
One card is face-up in the waste. Tap any uncovered board card exactly one rank higher or lower than that card (suit and color do not matter; Ace wraps next to King). The card you play becomes the new waste top, chaining from it. When nothing fits, draw the next stock card. Clear all 28 board cards to win.
How is TriPeaks different from Klondike solitaire?
Klondike builds suited sequences onto foundations; TriPeaks just wants rank-adjacent cards regardless of suit, so it is faster and more about planning chains. There are no foundations or tableau builds — just peaks, a waste pile, and a stock.
What is the best TriPeaks strategy?
Think one step ahead to keep chains alive: prefer plays that keep multiple ±1 options open, dig toward the peak cards early (they pay the most and gate rows below), and avoid drawing while any board play exists — streak bonuses are where the score lives. Save the stock for true dead ends.
Is every TriPeaks deal winnable?
Not guaranteed — like most solitaires some deals block up. The game detects a genuine dead-end (no plays and empty stock) and offers a fresh deal instantly, so an unwinnable board costs you seconds, not minutes.
Does King connect to Ace in this game?
Yes — rank order is cyclic: after King (13) wraps to Ace (1), then 2, and so on. So a Queen on the waste accepts a King, and a King accepts an Ace.
