Your one-suit table
The key details are straightforward. There is no countdown or entry fee for the game. Every deal contains 104 cards, so each rank appears eight times. Use the difficulty links whenever you want to try two or four suits. The homepage starts a one-suit game of Spider Solitaire with spades.
The aim of the game
The game removes a full face-up run automatically when it forms at the bottom of a column. A completed run contains thirteen spades in order from King down to Ace. Clear eight runs to finish the deal. The run counter shows how many complete sequences you have collected.
Read the opening layout
The key details are straightforward. The remaining fifty cards form five stock deals of ten cards each. The opening tableau has ten columns and 54 cards. The first four columns contain six cards each, and the other six contain five. Only the bottom card of each starting column is face up.
Build downward
An Ace ends a descending sequence and cannot accept another card on top. For example, a seven can move onto an eight, while a queen can move onto a king. Place a face-up card on another exposed card exactly one rank higher. A descending same-suit sequence can move together as one group.
Use an empty column
On this website, the following points apply. An empty column can help you separate a sequence or uncover a hidden card. Any exposed card or movable sequence can enter an empty column. You do not have to reserve empty columns for Kings. Every column must contain a card before you can deal from the stock.
Reveal more choices
The key details are straightforward. Look across the whole tableau before committing a valuable empty column. Revealing a card gives you another possible destination or starting point. A move that uncovers a card may be more useful than one that merely rearranges a visible sequence. Removing the last face-up card above a hidden card turns that hidden card face up.
Bring in the next row
A stock deal is available only when no column is empty. Each deal may open a useful move or interrupt a sequence you were building. You cannot choose which column receives an individual stock card. The stock button deals one face-up card onto each of the ten columns.
Controls at your pace
Keep these details in mind. You can also drag a card or a same-suit sequence to another column. Click or tap the first card of a movable sequence, then choose a destination column. The Hint button points to a legal option without promising a winning solution. Undo reverses the last successful move or stock deal while history is available.
