Solitaire Story TriPeaks 5 is another fun card game in the popular globe-hopping series. The player and their traveling companion, Foxy, explore the countries and major cities of the world. They can only complete their travels by winning TriPeaks Solitaire card games. From Europe to the poles, they visit almost every possible destination across hundreds of levels, including Austria, Venezuela, South Africa, Monaco, Scotland, Antarctica, Ghana, the Netherlands, Finland and China.
Gameplay follows classic next-card high-low rules. Starting with layered face-up and face-down field cards, the player selects the next ascending or descending face-up field card based on a face-up card positioned to the right of a draw pile. If no match exists, they select draw-pile cards until they find a match or pay in-game coins to use a wild card that features a court jester's hat. If they need to undo a move, they can also pay to use an undo back arrow button.
In Solitaire Story TriPeaks 5, the player can remove cards from the field with special cards and boosters as well. For example, if they perform five matches in a row, they receive extra draw-pile cards. On the field, they receive key cards that unlock locked cards covering face-down ones and Zap! cards that shoot electricity horizontally across face-up field cards. With boosters, they receive non-card assistance, such as a large drop of TNT bundles.
The player wins points, coins, up to three stars and red life hearts. When they complete achievements and missions, they earn extra coins. Additionally, they receive coins as gifts or prizes via daily bonuses, gift boxes, a lucky spin wheel, treasure chests and video views. After they play for a while, they unlock a pet and additional rewards that include achievement titles that range from Card Master to Pet Trainer, collectible card designs, stickers and hats.
