About Karanos Solitaire

Karanos Solitaire


Karanos Solitaire is a single-player card game using a traditional deck of cards with an original ruleset, built on grouping cards into best scoring combos. Playtime: 5 minutes per game.

Features

  • Minimal interface
  • Relaxing gameplay
  • Many cardback options
  • Color themes

Rules


You can play the game using your own deck of cards following the rules detailed below!

Goal
Your goal is to remove all cards from the game, scoring as many points as possible.

Setup
  1. Remove all face cards from the deck, leaving only aces and numerals. 40 cards in total.
  2. Shuffle the deck, then reveal the top 3 cards placing them next to the deck. Like so:

Available Actions
  1. Move a card from the bot row to the top row, revealing top deck card into the bot row
    • When the deck has one card left, flip it over, use it as a bottom row card
  2. Move a card from the top row to the back of the deck
  3. Remove top row cards matching a valid combo (listed below) from the game
  4. Remove a top row card from the game

Combos and Points
When a combo is matched and the cards are removed from the game, you gain the number of points the combo is worth. The following are all possible game combos and their point values:

Additionally, whenever a single card is moved from the top row, your points are reduced by 1.

Victory
The game can be considered won if you score 40 points or more, but no reason to stop there!

✦ AI summary

Karanos Solitaire is a polished, relaxing solitaire game with charming pixel art and satisfying sound design that works well for short gaming sessions, though some feel it relies too heavily on luck and a few achievements are frustratingly difficult. Players consistently praise its simplicity and reasonable pricing, making it a solid recommendation for those seeking a casual card game, though it may not captivate players looking for deeper gameplay mechanics or challenge.

Fun single player card game. Only gripe is I wish some of the achievements weren't so impossible. Game is priced perfectly and the pixel art looks great. Looking forward to see more games by the dev.

A relaxing solitaire game ideal for when you have a little bit of spare time. Satisfying sound fx and adjustable visuals (white on black hurts my eyes but the blue background is great). Recommended.

One of the best surprises I've had buying a game on Steam. I really like the simplicity in this game, it works perfect for short solo gameplay sessions, just like it says up in the description. Great game.

It’s okay—I wouldn’t say I wouldn’t recommend it, but it doesn’t blow my mind either. It’s above average for me, scoring 5.6 or 5.7/10. Now, it’s just my opinion, and I can’t emphasize that enough, so please don’t let my review completely deter you away from this game! Personally, it’s a little underwhelming, but given the reasonable price, I can’t be too surprised by what I got. I hope this doesn’t come across as a harsh criticism of the game; I enjoy simplicity, so please accept my apologies if it does... I just felt like it needed some gameplay improvements and less reliance on luck. However, having said that, I believe it’s a very nice thing to have in your library and play on occasion. See what you think!

Well made coffee break game where you play the odds. I don't think the dude is making games anymore unfortunately.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
