How to Play
Spider Solitaire is played with two decks (104 cards) across 10 columns. Build descending same-suit runs; when a full King-to-Ace run forms at the bottom of a column it is removed. Deal 10 new cards (one per column) from the stock when you get stuck. Clear all 8 sets to win.
Removing a complete King-to-Ace run of 13 same-suit cards is the only way cards leave the board, which means eight removals account for all 104 cards. Until a run is complete it just sits there taking up a column, so partial mixed-suit stacks are the main thing that loses games.
The stock holds 50 cards, enough for five full deals of ten. Emptying a column is worth more than any single move, because an empty column can absorb a partial run of any length.
Controls
- Click a column to select its top card
- Click another column to move the card where the top is one rank higher
- Deal +10 to distribute one new card to each non-empty column
- New Game to redeal
Tips & Tricks
- 1Try to expose and empty columns early for flexibility
- 2Prefer moving cards that unlock deeper stacked runs
- 3Save the stock until you have no productive moves
- 4Build complete suit runs rather than mixing temporarily
- 5Only a full 13-card same-suit run ever leaves the board, so a 12-card run you cannot finish is dead weight in that column
- 6Dealing from the stock puts a card on every non-empty column, so empty every column you can before you draw
- 7With 50 stock cards you get five deals — treat each one as a hard checkpoint rather than a casual refill
Frequently Asked Questions
How many sets must I clear?
You need to remove 8 complete King-to-Ace runs (104 cards total).
Can I move multiple cards at once?
Yes. You can move any descending same-suit run as a single unit onto a card one rank higher.
What does Deal +10 do?
It places one new card on every column that still has cards — which is why empty columns matter so much before you draw.
How many cards are in the stock?
50, enough for five full deals of ten cards.
Is every deal winnable?
No. Two-deck Spider with ten columns is not guaranteed solvable, so treat a clear as a genuine result.
What makes a run removable?
It must be 13 cards, King down to Ace, all of the same suit, sitting at the bottom of a column.
