Program Overview

The basic rules for Classic Peg Solitaire are to move pegs to empty cells, removing pegs that are jumped until no more moves are possible.   Pegs can be moved horizontally, vertically, and diagonally to empty cells provided 1 peg is jumped.   When finished, you are scored based on the number of pegs left in the board.  You are ranked ... or scored according to the following :

Rank	Score Required
Stinkin Genius	1 peg left, in the same hole that was removed first
Genius	1 peg left, anywhere on the board layout
Smart	2 pegs left
SoSo	3 pegs left
Its a Secret	4 or more pegs left

Additionally, the time that was required to receive your rank is recorded giving lesser times priority when scores have identical ranks.

Following are the board layouts and legal moves for each:

Getting Started

To start a game, first select the board layout you'd like to use.   To do this, select Options, Board Layout from the main menu.   Currently, there are 3 layouts :    Triangle, Square, and Cross.  Once your selection is made,   you can start the game by either selecting the Start Game button beneath the clock or, by selecting File, Start New Game from the programs main menu.

Once the clock has started, select the first peg that you'd like to remove.  After this peg is removed, you can move the remaining pegs to empty cells horizontally, diagonally, and vertically provided you jump 1 peg in the process.  NOTE:  all of the legal moves are defined in the Program Overview section of this help file.  After you have made a move, the Undo option in the programs menu will become active.   Selecting this menu item will undo your previous move.   Repeatedly selecting this menu item will bring the game back to its original state.   When there aren't any further moves available, you  will be notified with your  score.   If your score is among the top 10, you will be able to enter your name for the High Score listing.


High Scores

High Scores are viewed by selecting High Scores from the main menu.  The dialog displayed has 1 tab for each board layout.  To view the scores for a particular board, select its corresponding tab.

Selecting the Clear button will clear the scores for the currently selected board layout.  To clear all scores, you must select each of the board layout tabs followed by the clear button.

High Scores are sorted by Rank, followed by Time.  Scores with lesser times will have priority over same rank scores.  Additionally, the age of the score will take priority when more than one score has the same rank and time.
