LONDON and NEW YORK, July 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Is unraveling the secrets of the ancient world in the cards for you?  King Digital Entertainment plc (NYSE: KING), a leading interactive entertainment company for the mobile world and creator of global sensations Candy Crush Saga and Farm Heroes Saga, presents this exciting challenge to players as it launches its popular Facebook title Pyramid Solitaire Saga on mobile. King's first ever card-based cross-platform game is free-to-play and available to download now on iOS and Google Android devices.

The exhilarating card-based gaming adventure sends players on an epic journey to explore the lost relics of the ancient Egyptian world. They must conquer an array of card matching, arranging and collecting quests to help unravel the mysteries and magic of the bygone culture and find the hidden treasure. The treasure hunting storyline behind Pyramid Solitaire Saga offers rich and exotic graphics that immerse players in the wonders of ancient Egyptian culture, with 140 captivating levels that are not to be missed.

Throughout Pyramid Solitaire Saga, players are transported to magical new worlds with the treasure hunter, Helena, and her cunning gerbil companion, Kingsley, to discover ancient Egypt. Helena's epic adventure takes her and players to lost worlds such as The Hidden Tomb, The Emerald Dream, the Garden of Osiris and the Depth of Nautilus.

A free-to-play mobile game, Pyramid Solitaire Saga will challenge players with an array of game modes that test their ability to move, arrange, collect and match cards in distinct ways - keeping the gameplay, exciting, fresh and challenging. Each level calls for players to unveil all the Scarabs - which are hidden underneath the final layer of cards - before their deck runs out. When each episode is completed, a new unique hidden treasure will be revealed that gets players closer to the ultimate mission: reigniting the Egyptian god Khepri's prophecy. As a means to help them on their quest, players will be able to find and unlock powerful boosters that will help them overcome complicated game situations.
