Spooky Tripeaks

In Spooky Tripeaks, you can earn a Joker just by playing well: clear six cards in a row without drawing and the game rewards you with a wild card. What you do in the game Spooky Tripeaks is a Halloween-themed TriPeaks Solitaire card game. Your goal is to clear all the cards from the “peaks” (the cards on the board) before you run out of cards in your draw pile. Here’s the core loop: You start with one face-up card at the bottom (your current card). You click a card from the board if it is one higher or one lower than your current card. That chosen card becomes your new current card. If you have no moves, you draw a new card from the pile. Clear every board card to finish the level. Important rule: Aces can count as high or low, so they can connect to both 2 and King (depending on the game’s rule set). Controls Desktop Mouse: Click a playable card to collect it. Click the draw pile to flip a new current card when you’re stuck. Mobile Usually tap to select cards and tap the draw pile (if your version supports touch). How you win and how scoring works You win a level by clearing the whole board before your draw pile runs out. Some versions also give stars for speed. For example, you can earn up to 3 stars by clearing the board before a green timer drops under skulls. Many versions include a big level journey (often 100 levels). Jokers, bonus cards, and spooky helpers This game isn’t just plain solitaire. It has spooky extras: Joker from streaks: Clear 6 cards in a row without drawing to earn a Joker (wild card). Other special cards: Some levels include special cards with effects (they appear on the board). Bonus cards from characters: Some versions let you click ghosts or spooky characters to get bonus cards. Tips to play better (11 tips) Go for long runs, not quick draws. Every time you draw a new card, you lose your streak chance (and you use up the deck). Chase the “6-in-a-row” Joker. When you’re close to a streak, choose the move that keeps your chain alive. Clear cards that unlock others. A good move is one that flips open more face-down cards underneath. Use Aces as bridge cards. If you’re stuck, an Ace can sometimes connect you back into a run. Save Jokers for “blocker” cards. Use a Joker to remove a card that’s covering lots of hidden cards, not a random easy card. Look for two-step plans. Example: “If I take this 7, I can grab that 6, then that 5.” When you have choices, pick the safer branch. If one move opens new cards and the other doesn’t, open the board. Don’t ignore spooky bonus taps. If a ghost/character gives a bonus card, grab it—those can save a level. If the skull timer is dropping, stop overthinking. Make solid moves that clear space fast. If you keep getting stuck late-game, you’re drawing too early. Try to build longer chains before touching the draw pile. Coach voice: Slow eyes, fast choices. Take one calm scan, then click. Tiny real-life tip: If you keep missing the “best” move, pause for one second and look for the card that would reveal a face-down card. That’s usually the right pick. Levels and progression Most versions are level-based and get harder by: Adding more covered cards, Giving you fewer safe chains, Increasing pressure with star timers. Your real progress is learning how to: Build streaks, Use Jokers wisely, Clear “peaks” in a smart order.
