Tut's Tomb

About

Tut's Tomb is a single-player card puzzle where you clear a pyramid by pairing numbers that add to 13. Using a standard deck with Jacks as 11, Queens as 12, and Kings as 13, you remove cards by selecting pairs that total the magic number. The pyramid starts with 28 cards, and you win by eliminating every piece. Face cards can pair with each other or uncovered lower cards, but you can only select cards not covered by others. The challenge comes from deciding which moves free up more options later. This 1991 Microsoft title strips solitaire down to pure logic and planning. With no frills or extra modes, it focuses on the core mechanic of number matching. The lack of complexity makes it feel familiar to anyone who’s played Pyramid or similar patience games. While modern solitaire collections offer more variety, Tut’s Tomb remains a sharp, no-nonsense test of card management. Its simple design and steady difficulty curve keep it engaging for quick sessions or longer attempts.
