What is Marble Solitaire?
Marble Solitaire, or Peg Solitaire, is a one player game where the objective is to remove all but one marble from the board. I never had any problem doing this until I was told you couldn't just remove the marbles randomly. There were certain rules. Ever since I found that out, the game has been a lot harder.
The gameplay for Marble Solitaire is actually quite simple. How to Play Marble Solitaire fills you in on all the specifics of this implementation.
In a nutshell, choose a marble and jump over an adjacent one, as long as the square you are landing on is empty. Jump up, down, left or right. Diagonals are not allowed. Once you jump over a marble, remove the marble you just jumped over. Keep doing this until you have only one marble left and you're a winner. If your last marble ends up smack dab in the middle of the board, well then you're an extra special winner. On this web site, if you manage to do that, you get all the fame, compliments and accolades you care to give yourself. Cause pretty much nobody else is going to know, and there aren't any prizes.
