Build descending sequences from King down to Ace in the same suit to clear them off the ten-column tableau. Dealing new rows when you're stuck keeps the board alive, but only complete runs of a single suit are removed.
How to play Spider Solitaire
- Arrange cards into descending order within the ten tableau columns.
- Move same-suit runs together to keep sequences flexible.
- Deal a new row from the stock when you run out of moves.
- Complete a King-to-Ace run in one suit to clear it from the board.
- Clear all sequences to win the game.
Tips & strategy
- Empty a column when you can, since it's the most powerful place to maneuver cards.
- Build within a single suit whenever possible so completed runs can be removed.
- Don't deal a new row until you've exhausted every useful move on the board.
Controls: Tap or drag cards to move them between columns.
