We have not written a verdict for this pairing. The comparison above is drawn from each game's own recorded facts — follow either link for its full rules and strategy.
Golf
Clear seven tableau columns by playing cards one rank higher or lower than the current waste card.
Seven columns of five cards are dealt face up, and one card starts the foundation. Play the exposed card at the bottom of any column onto the foundation whenever it is one rank above or below the current foundation card — suit is irrelevant.
TriPeaks
Clear three overlapping card peaks by playing cards one rank higher or lower than the current waste card.
Twenty-eight cards form three overlapping peaks with a row of ten along the bottom, and only cards with nothing overlapping them can be played. Move an available card to the waste pile whenever it is one rank higher or lower than the current waste card, suit ignored, and clearing a card may uncover others behind it.
