How to Solve Hexagon Solitaire Like a Champ

Ready to dive into Hexagon Solitaire? This isn’t your typical card game, it’s a peg-jumping puzzle played with a single deck of 52 cards, laid out in a hexagonal twist. You start by dealing six cards face-up into a hexagon shape: one card at the top, two below it, two more under those, and one at the bottom, all arranged so they form a six-sided pattern. The rest of the deck becomes your stock pile, flipped face-up one card at a time to a waste pile. Your goal is to clear the hexagon by pairing cards that add up to 13, like a King (13) by itself, a Queen (12) with an Ace (1), or a 7 with a 6, regardless of suit.

Here’s how it plays out: only cards that aren’t overlapped by others are free to move. You can pair two free hexagon cards if they total 13, removing them from the layout, or match a free hexagon card with the top waste card if they hit that magic number. Flip through the stock one by one, pairing what you can, and keep going until the hexagon’s empty or you’re stuck. It’s a quick, brain-teasing game that’s all about spotting those 13s fast, perfect for a solo challenge. Can you clear the hexagon and claim the win?
