How to play Spider Solitaire
Start Spider Solitaire by looking at the playing area and its controls. Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Look at what changes after your first action.
Two decks, one/two/four suits; fill every column before a ten-card stock deal. Free solo play, no wagering.
A small practice goal
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Keep the objective visible.
Understand the aim
Complete eight same-suit king-to-ace runs. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Review the board or playing area as it changes.
From the start of a round
- Build down by rank. Only descending same-suit groups move together. Empty columns accept any movable group.
- Select a face-up card and then the destination pile or Empty slot.
- Use foundations where available; full Spider or Scorpion runs clear automatically.
- Undo reverses a choice. New deal shuffles again.
How to interact with the game
Click or tap cards and piles. Wide tableaus scroll inside the game; use Undo, Hint and New deal where shown. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Check any mode label before starting.
One way to understand the rules
A mixed-suit descending stack cannot move as one group. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Choose a deliberate next step.
Notice this detail
Random deals are not guaranteed solvable. A hint is a legal move, not a winning strategy. Check the rule before repeating the action. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
