Monte Carlo Thirteens

The game starts by dealing a 5x5 grid of 25 cards, with the remaining cards forming a draw pile. The objective is to remove pairs of cards that equal 13, like 6+7 or queen and ace. Kings can be removed alone. Cards must be adjacent horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. When no more pairs of 13 can be removed, the cards are gathered, new cards are dealt into tableau, and play continues. The game is won if all cards are removed.
