How do I win Spider Solitaire?
Keep these details in mind. Clearing all eight sequences accounts for the full deck of 104 cards. The game removes a completed sequence automatically from the bottom of a column. Collect eight complete same-suit sequences from King down to Ace. Each qualifying sequence contains thirteen face-up cards.
Why will a group of cards not move?
A change in suit breaks the group even when the rank order is correct. A single exposed card can land on a card one rank higher regardless of suit. Try selecting a shorter matching segment from the bottom of the column. A group must be face up, descending by one rank at a time and entirely in one suit.
Why can I not deal from the stock?
Here is what to know. Every tableau column must contain at least one card before a stock deal. A stock deal adds exactly one face-up card to each of the ten columns. The stock button cannot deal after all five stock rows have been used. Move a card or legal sequence into each empty column to meet that requirement.
Does an empty column require a King?
The key details are straightforward. A King needs an empty column because it cannot land on another rank. Kings are allowed but are not required. An empty column accepts any exposed card or movable same-suit sequence. Empty columns must be filled before the next stock deal.
Does the game save my progress?
Here is what to know. Each difficulty has its own saved game. With saving enabled, progress is stored in this browser on this domain. Clearing browser storage, using a different device or turning saving off can remove access to that progress. The Privacy & Cookie Settings page lets you manage local saving.
What do Undo and Replay do?
Keep these details in mind. Replay restarts the same shuffled deal from its opening position. Up to 200 recent action snapshots are retained when storage permits. Undo reverses a recent successful move or stock deal, including automatic flips and collections. New game creates a different shuffle and replaces the current deal for that difficulty.
Can every random deal be won?
Keep these details in mind. Undo or Replay can help you explore a different approach when progress stalls. Hint suggests a legal move from the visible position. The game uses random shuffles and does not promise that every deal is winnable. Hints do not inspect hidden cards to provide a complete solution.
Are touch controls available?
Here is what to know. Rotating your phone may give you a wider view of all ten columns. Dragging is also supported on the card table. The mobile menu opens from the menu icon at the top of the page. Tap a movable card or the first card of a matching descending group, then tap a destination column.
