Make Spider Solitaire your next activity in the game library. Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Two decks, one/two/four suits; fill every column before a ten-card stock deal. Free solo play, no wagering.
Take a closer look while playing
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Use the example to check your reasoning.
The goal to keep in mind
Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
Making your moves
- Build down by rank. Only descending same-suit groups move together. Empty columns accept any movable group.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
The controls to know
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Return to the rules if the result is unexpected.
Follow the example
A mixed-suit descending stack cannot move as one group. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Choose a deliberate next step.
A useful caution
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
