Clock Solitaire (and Mathematical Analysis)
An implementation of Clock Solitaire, a very simple solitaire game, followed by a lengthy interactive mathematical analysis of the win rate of it.

Not a very fun game to be honest (as you've said that's there no strategy).
However, I'm quite entertained w/ the explanation along the way (those savvy statistics). It's just felt too long, especially with the anticlimactic exact probability ending (which, btw, I've done analyse it right after your first hint in section 2 that the king is always the last card). Maybe other game with no way to analyse the probability and must rely on statistic would suit the article better?
Thanks by the way. Great coding/writing!
