Online Peg Solitaire Game - Play Solo!
Play an excellent, old-school board game challenge comprising 16 separate puzzles - easy, medium, hard and extremely difficult: Solo really is a fun yet challenging, 1-player, logic-based visual puzzler (for young kids through adults and seniors) that follows the rules of Peg Solitaire (also called Solo Noble and BrainVita) – a classic jumping board game similar in concept to Chinese Checkers.
The aim of the game in Solo is to reduce the number of circular pegs to just 1 solo remaining peg (Pegs are eliminated when ‘jumped over’ by other pegs – exactly the same as you would capture an opponent's piece in checkers). Solo features 16 increasingly-tricky mini-games (levels) with more pegs and fewer available grid spaces as you progress.
Skills / strategy required: Peg solitaire games are difficult problem-solving brain teaser puzzles where sharp logic and analytical thinking skills are required to find out a solution. Complete focus and concentration, great determination and stamina are essential here – You really need to be ‘in the zone’ to solve the Solo puzzles, especially in later levels. A good strategy is to take your time, and visualize a few moves ahead. There is no clock pressure, so carefully plan out your jumping moves in advance.
