How to play
- Build cards down in order on the ten columns — any suit can sit on the next rank up.
- A group of cards only moves together if they are the same suit in order.
- Complete a full King-to-Ace run of one suit and it is cleared from the board.
- When you are stuck, deal a new row from the stock — but only when no column is empty.
Strategy & tips
- Start on 1-suit to learn the flow, then step up to 2 and 4 suits for a real challenge.
- Uncover face-down cards early and try to keep one column empty as a workspace.
- Build same-suit runs whenever you can — mixed-suit stacks cannot move as a group.
- Do not deal from the stock too soon; clear what you can first, since a deal fills every column.
- Clearing a full suit run opens up huge room to manoeuvre, so aim for the first one fast.
FAQ
What is the difference between 1, 2 and 4 suit?
The number of suits sets the difficulty. One suit is the easiest and most forgiving; two suits is a solid challenge; four suits is the hardest, classic Spider. You can switch any time — it starts a fresh deal.
How do I win Spider Solitaire?
Clear all eight complete King-to-Ace runs of a single suit. Each completed run is removed from the board; clear all eight and you win.
Is it free and account-free?
Yes. Spider Solitaire plays free in your browser with no download and no sign-up. Your best score saves locally.
Why can I not move a stack of cards?
A run of cards only moves together when they are the same suit in descending order. A mixed-suit stack has to be moved one card at a time.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. Tap a card to pick up its run and tap a column to drop it. It works on phones and tablets as well as desktop.
