TriPeaks-style solitaire on a mountain trail: clear three card peaks, chain runs for streak multipliers and play a daily deal that is always winnable.
About Summit Solitaire
Summit Solitaire is a free TriPeaks-style solitaire game for your phone, tablet or computer. Three peaks of cards rise in front of you, and your job is to clear them by playing cards that are one rank higher or lower than the card on the waste pile. Play a six onto a five or a seven, then a four onto the five you just played, and keep the run going for as long as you can. There is nothing to install and no account to make: open the page and the first peak is already dealt.
Every card you play in a row raises your streak multiplier, from times one up to times five, so a long run is worth far more than a handful of single cards. Drawing from the stock ends the streak, so the real game is deciding when to keep going and when to take a card. Cards on the peaks turn face up once the cards that overlap them are gone, which means each play can open the next one. Clear a peak tip for a bonus and an earned Wild card, a booster that lets the next card you tap go on any rank. By default a king and an ace connect for an easy wrap-around, and you can switch that off in the menu for the strict version of the game.
The mountain trail is the heart of the game. Thirty dealt levels climb through five camps, from Pine Hollow to The Summit, and every level has gentle goals: clear a number of peaks, reach a certain streak, and earn a third star by clearing the whole mountain. Every level, and every daily deal, has been checked by a solver, so each one can be won even with the strict rule. Stars unlock new card backs and mountain scenes, and the map shows how far you have come.
The daily deal is the same for every player, refreshes at midnight UTC and keeps a streak of days in a row. Prefer to play at your own pace? Free play deals a new mountain whenever you like, with an optional winnable-only filter. Stats track your best score and longest streak, and scores go to the leaderboard.
Tips: look for runs before you play, because the same card can start a long chain or break one. Clear the cards that unlock the most face-down cards first, save Wild cards for the moment a long streak is about to end, and remember that a hint shows what the solver would play next. A round takes three to six minutes, which makes Summit Solitaire an easy break whenever you have a few spare minutes. Your trail progress, the round in play and your settings are saved automatically.
How to play
Tap or click a face-up card that is one rank higher or lower than the card on the waste pile (with the K-A option on, a king and an ace connect). A card turns face up when the cards overlapping it are gone. If nothing matches, tap the stock to draw a new waste card; that ends your streak. Every card in a row raises the multiplier up to x5, clearing a peak tip earns a Wild card, and the Wild button lets the next card you tap go on any rank. On a keyboard, the arrow keys pick a card, Enter or Space plays it, D draws, W plays a Wild card, U or Ctrl+Z undoes, H shows a hint, P or Esc pauses and M mutes.

FAQ
- Is every deal winnable?
- Every trail level and every daily deal is: a solver has cleared each of them, even with the strict no-wrap rule. Free play can also be limited to winnable deals in the menu, and if the solver cannot prove a deal the game tells you.
- What does the K-A option do?
- With it on (the default), a king counts as next to an ace, so you can wrap around from K to A. Switch it off for the strict rule. The daily deal always uses the default rule.
- How does the streak multiplier work?
- Each card you play without drawing adds to your streak. Cards one to three score times one, four to six times two, and so on up to times five from the thirteenth card. Drawing from the stock, or using undo, ends the streak.
- How do I get Wild cards?
- You start every deal with one. Clearing a peak tip earns another, and so does reaching a streak of ten. You can hold three. When you run out you can watch a short ad for one more, up to twice per deal.
- How do I earn stars on the trail?
- Each level has a peaks goal, a streak goal and a bonus for clearing the whole mountain. Meeting the peaks goal passes the level and earns a star, the streak goal earns a second and clearing the mountain a third. Stars unlock card backs and mountain scenes.
- Is my progress saved?
- Yes. The round in progress, your trail stars, daily results and settings are saved on this device automatically, and to your Playora account when you are signed in.
