How do I win Spider Solitaire?
Here is what to know. 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.
Why will a group of cards not move?
The key details are straightforward. A single exposed card can land on a card one rank higher regardless of suit. A group must be face up, descending by one rank at a time and entirely in one suit. 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.
Do empty columns prevent a deal?
On this website, the following points apply. Move a card or legal sequence into each empty column to meet that requirement. The stock button cannot deal after all five stock rows have been used. Every tableau column must contain at least one card before a stock deal. A stock deal adds exactly one face-up card to each of the ten columns.
Does an empty column require a King?
On this website, the following points apply. A King needs an empty column because it cannot land on another rank. Kings are allowed but are not required. An empty column accepts any exposed card or movable same-suit sequence. Empty columns must be filled before the next stock deal.
Can I return to the same deal?
On this website, the following points apply. Clearing browser storage, using a different device or turning saving off can remove access to that progress. Each difficulty has its own saved game. The Privacy & Cookie Settings page lets you manage local saving. With saving enabled, progress is stored in this browser on this domain.
What do Undo and Replay do?
The key details are straightforward. New game creates a different shuffle and replaces the current deal for that difficulty. Undo reverses a recent successful move or stock deal, including automatic flips and collections. Replay restarts the same shuffled deal from its opening position. Up to 200 recent action snapshots are retained when storage permits.
Can every random deal be won?
Undo or Replay can help you explore a different approach when progress stalls. Hint suggests a legal move from the visible position. Hints do not inspect hidden cards to provide a complete solution. The game uses random shuffles and does not promise that every deal is winnable.
Are touch controls available?
On this website, the following points apply. The mobile menu opens from the menu icon at the top of the page. Dragging is also supported on the card table. Tap a movable card or the first card of a matching descending group, then tap a destination column. Rotating your phone may give you a wider view of all ten columns.
