 **1. Getting Started**
 **==================**

 **a. How to Play Pyramid Challenge**
 **--------------------------------**

        There are many variations of the game of Solitaire,
        Pyramid Challenge, also known as Tut's Tomb, is one
        variation.

        Each game round starts with twenty eight cards dealt
        face upwards to the board forming a pyramid. The
        remaining cards form the deck.

        The object of the game is to eliminate all 28 playing
        cards by playing off all the cards in pairs that add
        up to 13. Aces count as 1, jacks as 11, queens as 12,
        and kings as 13. Kings are removed alone.

        Only cards that are free, with no other cards on top
        of them, can be removed. As cards are removed, new
        cards become available for play.

        If you click on the 'DEAL' button, a card from the
        deck is placed on the top of the heap. A card at the
        top of the heap can be matched to free cards and
        removed, if the two cards add up to 13.

        The game is won if all 28 cards are removed from the
        board.

        If you have a problem, chances are you can fix it without
        needing to get help. Try the following:

        If the game says you have insufficient memory, or if it crashes,
        try rebooting without loading any TSR programs, such as your
        disk cache.

        your monitor.
