Royale 55 is a Poker based solitaire online game where the aim is to create 11 poker hands out of the 55 cards. The deck consists of the 52 standard cards plus 3 Wild cards that can count as any card.
At the start 25 cards are placed in five rows with five cards each. You can now move each row sideways to line up the Poker hand you want to create in the center vertical column. When you have made the hand Submit it to get five new cards laid out from the deck. Continue to make hands until you have used the whole deck, but time is limited, so do not think too long.
Each hand has a value that is based on how difficult it is to make in Poker and also on how many times you have made it in the game. The aim is to make the most valuable hands possible out of the deck and also to achieve as many of the 10 possible combinations that exist, including Royale 55 (5 of a kind) that can only be made with a Wild Card in the hand.
There are always many poker hands that can be created at any point, the key is foremost to search for the really valuable hands, and if possible tick off hands you have not created so far in the game to set a high score.
Use the hand indicator to the right to check what Poker hand combinations that remain to be achieved.
Making a Royale 55 is always worth more than anything else, and the score does not decrease even if you make more than one. If you spot 4 cards of the same value on 4 different rows it can be worth trying to save them in case a Wild card becomes available on the fifth row.
Try not to get stuck too long looking for a perfect hand hidden amongst the cards, instead focus on a certain combination you want to achieve. Remember that the last 2-3 hands are usually hard to create anything really valuable with so the 1 Pair and 2 Pair combinations you should save for those last hands. Focus on the high scoring hands early in the online game.
