Pyramid Solitaire Saga Cheats And Tips

Pyramid Solitaire Saga is the latest release from King, the same studio that released Bubble Witch Saga 2 and Candy Crush Saga. It has a lot in common with other solitaire-based puzzle games, where you try to chain together card runs to eliminate special gold cards from the board. Once those are out, any leftover cards add to your high score, and the more points you have, the more stars you'll earn!
Here are some tips that will have you cruising these Babylonian boards in no time!
 

How do you play Pyramid Solitaire Saga?

The game has a lot in common with other solitaire-based games. Your main goal is to eliminate poker cards on a table by matching them up in counting order, from two all the way up to Ace. You'll have about 30 additional cards in your deck if you can't find a match for your current card, and you can use power-ups to help you out as well.
Within each stage, you'll have the ability to earn up to three stars. The higher your score gets, the more stars you'll earn. However, if you run out of cards with gold cards still on the table, you'll have to use one of your five lives to start over. If you run out of lives, you'll either need to pay for a refill or wait until it's refilled (about an hour or so).

How do power-ups work in Pyramid Solitaire Saga?

As with King's other games, Pyramid Solitaire Saga offers up power-up cards initially for free, then lays out the option to buy some more using gold bars, which you can either earn in-game or add on to with a real purchase. These power-ups are useful, including joker cards that serve as a wild card to match cards up, or a reshuffler that lets you move cards around the playfield. When you have these, try to use them sparingly, so you'll be able to build a higher combo and a better score.

How does the Blue Stash work in Pyramid Solitaire Saga?

The Blue Stash lets you save certain cards for later use, but you can only store so many at a time. Try to hold just one card at first, then add a second if you really need it. Honestly, we only had to use it a few times, but with certain strings of cards, it comes in handy.
 

What's the best way to earn points in Pyramid Solitaire Saga?

Go with combos. The bigger the card count, the higher your score. In addition, try to have as many cards left over as possible, both in your stack and on the playfield (regular ones are eliminated if you take out all the gold ones). They really add up, and help you quickly earn stars.
In addition, keep an eye out for gold scarabs. These little suckers will jump on the playfield every once and a while. Squishing them will net you an additional point bonus, and sometimes it can make all the difference between two and three stars.

Do I need to pay for anything in Pyramid Solitaire Saga?

Only if you really need to use power-ups, or can't wait a long period of time for a health refill. You can purchase these with gold bars, and you can buy more of them from $0.99 to $49.99, depending how many you need. As always, try the game out first and then decide if you really need them.
