Tap a card (or a same-suit run) to pick it up, then tap where it should go. Tap the stock to deal a new row when no column is empty.
🕷️ How to play Spider Solitaire
Build eight full King-to-Ace runs of a single suit and clear the table to win.
- Move a card by tapping it (or clicking on desktop), then tapping its destination — you can only pick up a descending run when every card in it is the same suit.
- Build down by rank onto any card one higher (suit ignored when landing); an empty column accepts anything.
- Deal a fresh face-up card to every column by tapping the stock — only allowed when no column is empty.
- Complete a King-to-Ace same-suit run and it lifts off to a foundation automatically. Press N for a new game.
💡 Empty a column whenever you can — it's the most powerful space in the game for shuffling runs into the right suit order.
📜 Did you know? Spider Solitaire is named for a spider's eight legs, matching the eight suit-runs you must build to win; it shipped with Microsoft Plus! 98 before becoming a Windows staple in Windows ME and XP.
