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.

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.

TriPeaks (Double)

TriPeaks scaled up to two decks and a wider set of peaks for a longer round.

Two full three-peak tableaux side by side — six peaks, 104 cards — and otherwise exactly standard TriPeaks. Only uncovered cards are available; move one to the waste when it is a rank above or below the current waste card, suit ignored; turn a stock card when nothing will go.
