Solitaire Battle Arena: solitaire scored in points, five players at a time
Solitaire Battle Arena turns the classic card patience into a contest: five players receive a deal from a standard 52-card deck, each has a fixed time to score points, and the finishing order decides who gets paid. Opponents are matched automatically. For Algeria, the game is listed in the 1xGames section on 1xBet.
The prize fund is made of all five stakes less a 5% platform commission. First place takes 70% of it, second place 25% and third place 5%; the position you finish in, and therefore the amount, depends on nothing but your points.
Moving cards on the Tableau
Seven piles form the Tableau. Cards on them run in descending order with alternating colours, red on black and black on red. You may move the top face-up card, or a whole group of cards that is already in the right sequence; the card underneath is turned face up as soon as the one above it leaves. An emptied pile accepts a King of any suit, after which the descending, alternating sequence continues. Cards travel to the four Foundations from the Tableau or from the Stock, by dragging or by a click, and each Foundation runs from Ace to King in a single suit. The round ends when all 52 cards sit on the Foundations; with no move left, the Finish button closes it.
How many points each action earns
Action | Points |
|---|---|
An Ace placed on a Foundation | 100 |
Each next card on that Foundation | 20 more than the previous one (120, then 140, and so on) |
A card moved from the Stock to the Tableau | 20 |
A face-down card revealed on the Tableau | 20 |
Points can also go the other way: sending a card back from a Foundation to the Tableau costs exactly what that card had earned, and running through the whole Stock and starting it again costs 15 points.
Finishing early pays
When the deal is completed before the clock runs out, the leftover time becomes points by the formula "points earned × time remaining ÷ maximum time", rounded to a whole number. Finish with half the clock still to run and your score grows by half; finish with a fifth of it left and a fifth is added.
The screen and the lobby
Four Foundation slots sit across the top of the screen, the Stock occupies the upper right corner, and the timer and the "Pts" counter stay in view throughout. On first launch a welcome box asks whether you want to know more about the game, with Yes and No buttons. Which lobby you enter, and who sits in it with you, is set by the size of your stake.
