October 20, 2023 Pyramid Daily Challenge is Unsolveable!

Steve Nabours · Oct 21, 2023

Today's pyramid daily challenge is unsolveable -- The first pyramid is able to be cleared just fine (but not enough 4's to clear in one pyramid, of course). The second pyramid has too many 6's behind the 7's, making it impossible to clear the pyramid. If you use the shuffle to go on to the next round without clearing, the next one has too many 2's behind the Jacks.

2nd Pyramid:

3rd Pyramid:

The goal is to clear 11 4's in two deals, but unfortunately, because of this issue, you can't clear enough 4's before hitting the wall.

Screenshots attached. Please adjust puzzle so we can complete the daily challenge. Thanks!

UPDATE: I found a way around the issue after all -- just had to ignore the actual pyramid on the third puzzle and clear 4's directly from the deck. Not the most fun way to play the game, but it worked. Still would be better for the actual pyramids to be solveable.

Hello, Steve. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to provide some assistance with your concerns today.

I found a video that may help you to solve this specific challenge, would I know if it worked?

Pyramid and Tripeaks are RNG based, only the daily challenges are checked to be solvable as long as the challenge requires, so unfortunately an unlucky streak may happen and you may get unsolvable boards. I know it's not fun getting a board you cannot
solve at first glance (with pyramid is often easy to spot such cases) but as long as the board generation is random, that may happen.

Tommy,

What you've already heard. Tripeaks works. The issue is that the Daily Challenge hand for September 16, 2023, appears to be unsolvable (even though it's graded "Easy"). Several others have already pointed this out.

Can Microsoft either post a solution or provide a new hand?

Sorry I meant three peaks not pyramid. All the experts who usually give solutions agree this three peaks on 16th September 2023 is unsolvable. So it will be impossible to complete the year? Seems unfair.

I don't remember the exact moves but I do have some hints. On the first board: leave the 2 of Spades (I'm pretty sure it was that card, it was the last 2 in the deck) in the deck until the last J at the top. For the second board, leave your 8s in the deck
until you get to the top with the last 5.
