Rules, controls and help for Spider Solitaire

Use the rule sheet as a reference. Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. Select cards directly on the tableau and work through a full solo deal. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Keep the active rule in mind. Build down by rank. Only descending same-suit groups move together. Empty columns accept any movable group. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.

Two decks, one/two/four suits; fill every column before a ten-card stock deal. Free solo play, no wagering.

Give this approach a try

For a calm first round, focus on one decision. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot. Take the next action only when the current step is clear.

Your goal

Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer. Take a moment to read the table.

The order of play

  1. Build down by rank. Only descending same-suit groups move together. Empty columns accept any movable group.
  2. Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
  3. Complete same-suit king-to-ace runs to clear them from the tableau.
  4. Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.

Your inputs

Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Return to the explanation when a decision is unclear. Look at the complete hand before deciding.

See how the rules apply

A mixed-suit descending stack cannot move as one group. The same rule applies on a phone and on a computer.

Avoid this misunderstanding

Treat this as a chance to practise one rule. Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the relevant controls before continuing.
