Find your footing in Spider Solitaire
Make Spider Solitaire your next activity in the game library. Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Check the rule that explains your first action. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.
Two decks, one/two/four suits; fill every column before a ten-card stock deal. Free solo play, no wagering.
Bring this focus to a round
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Notice the feedback after each input.
Aim for this result
Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Keep the controls in easy reach.
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.
Your inputs
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Use one clear input at a time.
Work through an example
A mixed-suit descending stack cannot move as one group. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Look for the relevant detail.
A common point of confusion
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
