Build eight complete Spider runs
Spider solitaire uses 104 cards spread across ten columns and a stock. The first four columns start with six cards each; the other six start with five. Only the last card in each column is face up. Fifty cards remain in the stock.
Build down from King to Ace. You can place a card on the next higher rank regardless of suit, but a group moves together only when it forms a descending sequence in one suit. A complete same-suit King-to-Ace run clears automatically. Clear eight runs to win.
What are the eight slots?
The eight small slots beside the stock mark completed runs. They are progress indicators, not spare cells. You cannot park a card there. When a run clears, the collected count advances toward eight.
When can I deal another row?
A stock click deals one card onto every column. Every column must contain a card before you deal. Fill any empty column first; it can accept any card or movable same-suit sequence. There are five stock deals, with no recycling after they are used.
Choose one, two or four suits
- One suit: every card is a spade, so descending groups naturally share a suit. Start here to learn column management.
- Two suits: spades and hearts introduce mixed-suit groups. Keep matching sequences together where possible.
- Four suits: all four suits appear. A move may expose a useful card but leave a mixed sequence that needs more space to separate.
Select your variant in Game rules. All three use the same eight-run goal. The difficulty comes from arranging suits, not a faster timer.
Plan before spending a stock deal
First inspect whether you can uncover a face-down card or join two matching sequences. An empty column is useful workspace, but must be filled again before drawing. A newly dealt row covers ten column ends, so use available moves before adding more cards.
Why will a group not move?
Matching ranks alone are not enough. A queen of spades on a king of hearts is allowed as a placement, but those two cards cannot move as a group. Move the queen away or rebuild the group in one suit. Undo lets you revisit a decision, including a stock deal.
