FAQ

How do I win Spider Solitaire?

Collect eight complete same-suit sequences from King down to Ace. The game removes a completed sequence automatically from the bottom of a column. Clearing all eight sequences accounts for the full deck of 104 cards. Each qualifying sequence contains thirteen face-up cards.

What makes a sequence movable?

Try selecting a shorter matching segment from the bottom of the column. A change in suit breaks the group even when the rank order is correct. A group must be face up, descending by one rank at a time and entirely in one suit. A single exposed card can land on a card one rank higher regardless of suit.

Do empty columns prevent a deal?

The key details are straightforward. A stock deal adds exactly one face-up card to each of the ten columns. Every tableau column must contain at least one card before a stock deal. The stock button cannot deal after all five stock rows have been used. Move a card or legal sequence into each empty column to meet that requirement.

Can I put any card in an empty column?

The key details are straightforward. Kings are allowed but are not required. A King needs an empty column because it cannot land on another rank. Empty columns must be filled before the next stock deal. An empty column accepts any exposed card or movable same-suit sequence.

Can I return to the same deal?

The key details are straightforward. Each difficulty has its own saved game. With saving enabled, progress is stored in this browser on this domain. Clearing browser storage, using a different device or turning saving off can remove access to that progress. The Privacy & Cookie Settings page lets you manage local saving.

What do Undo and Replay do?

New game creates a different shuffle and replaces the current deal for that difficulty. Up to 200 recent action snapshots are retained when storage permits. Replay restarts the same shuffled deal from its opening position. Undo reverses a recent successful move or stock deal, including automatic flips and collections.

Does Hint guarantee a solution?

Hints do not inspect hidden cards to provide a complete solution. Hint suggests a legal move from the visible position. The game uses random shuffles and does not promise that every deal is winnable. Undo or Replay can help you explore a different approach when progress stalls.

How do I play on a phone?

Keep these details in mind. Rotating your phone may give you a wider view of all ten columns. The mobile menu opens from the menu icon at the top of the page. Tap a movable card or the first card of a matching descending group, then tap a destination column. Dragging is also supported on the card table.

Do I need an account or a download?

Keep these details in mind. JavaScript must be enabled for interactive play. The Spider game runs in your browser after the page and its resources load. The learning pages remain readable without JavaScript. No player account, purchase or app installation is required.
