I want to learn an easy single player card game besides solitaire because I get bored easly
I play a game called "Pyramid" that my dad taught me when I was a kid when I need to waste time. It’s half strategy, half luck, all fun.
Make a "pyramid" out of cards, meaning, lay down cards in OVERLAPPING rows (as in, the top corners of the cards from one row are covering the bottom corners of the row behind it. This is important!). Start with the top, 1 card. Then the second row, 2 cards (one on each bottom corner of the first card), then a third row of three cards, etc, untill you’ve spent the whole deck.
After that, pick up pick up pairs of "exposed" cards (both of whose bottom corners are exposed) whose total face values add up to 13.
On your very first move, for example, you can only take from the bottom row. You can pick up an 8 and a 5, a 9 and a 4, a Queen and an Ace, or just a King, as long as BOTH bottom corners are exposed.
Simply repeat the process until you pick up the pyramid, if you can. I’ve never beaten it myself, wether from personal error or bad luck.
I apologise if the directions are too wordy or don’t make sense! lol
Technically, any single player card game is called solitaire. The kind of solitaire that you’re talking about is probably Klondike. Anyway, you can find a lot of solitaire games here: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=single+player+card+games
Google is your friend. Don’t get other people to do your work for you, search on your own, I think you’re grown up enough to to it
