TriPeaks Solitaire uses a single deck of 52 cards, 28 of the cards are dealt into 3 piles. The remaining cards are left in the deck and can be played one at a time.

​

In the options page it is possible to select 'Auto' this allows the cards to automatically transfer from a pile to the waste pile when selected and valid. If 'Auto' is off then the player has to manually drag and drop the cards to the waste pile, a card that is not valid is returned back to it's original position. 

​
The aim of the game is to move all of the cards to clear the TriPeak piles by moving the cards to the waste pile. A card can only be transferred from a TriPeak pile to the waste pile if it is either one up or one down of the waste pile card regardless of suit, only uncovered faceup cards can be transferred. 

​

Only one deal is allowed, once all of the deck cards have been used if there are any cards left in the TriPeak piles then the game is lost. 

​
If all TriPeak piles are cleared then a winning message is displayed. 

The game also records the game play statistics including:-

The scoring is as follows:

For the first card moved to the waste +100 points are awarded, for each consecutive card transferred the points increase by +100

​

First card +100
Second card + 200
Third card + 300

Total points = +600

 

This is called a 'Streak' A streak is broken if a deck card has to be flipped. The points scoring reverts back to +100

 

If all of the TriPeaks are cleared +100 points will be awarded for each deck card remaining.
