Description

Pyramid is a thrilling card game that combines elements of Poker with a unique symbol system, inspired by the original Battlestar Galactica television series. The game is simple to learn, with a deck of 56 cards featuring four suits and a set of wild Cylon cards that can be used to create powerful combinations. Players are dealt five cards and must use their wits to bet, bluff, and collect sets of cards to win the game. The goal is to create the highest-ranking hand possible, with options ranging from a Full Pyramid to a Quorum, Quad, Triad, or Duo. As players take turns betting and discarding cards, the game becomes a test of strategy and skill. With the ability to discard up to four cards and receive new ones, players must carefully manage their hand and make tactical decisions about when to bet, call, or raise. The Cylon cards add an extra layer of excitement, as they can be used to complete a Full Pyramid or represent any card in the deck. With its unique blend of betting, bluffing, and hand management, Pyramid is a game that will keep you on the edge of your seat as you compete to win the most Cubits and emerge victorious.
