Your one-suit table
Here is what to know. Every deal contains 104 cards, so each rank appears eight times. The homepage starts a one-suit game of Spider Solitaire with spades. There is no countdown or entry fee for the game. Use the difficulty links whenever you want to try two or four suits.
Eight complete runs
Keep these details in mind. 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. The run counter shows how many complete sequences you have collected. Clear eight runs to finish the deal.
Your first ten columns
The remaining fifty cards form five stock deals of ten cards each. The first four columns contain six cards each, and the other six contain five. The opening tableau has ten columns and 54 cards. Only the bottom card of each starting column is face up.
Find a legal destination
Here is what to know. An Ace ends a descending sequence and cannot accept another card on top. A descending same-suit sequence can move together as one group. Place a face-up card on another exposed card exactly one rank higher. For example, a seven can move onto an eight, while a queen can move onto a king.
Use an empty column
Here is what to know. Every column must contain a card before you can deal from the stock. You do not have to reserve empty columns for Kings. 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.
Reveal more choices
Keep these details in mind. 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
Keep these details in mind. A stock deal is available only when no column is empty. The stock button deals one face-up card onto each of the ten columns. Each deal may open a useful move or interrupt a sequence you were building. You cannot choose which column receives an individual stock card.
Controls at your pace
Here is what to know. Undo reverses the last successful move or stock deal while history is available. 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.

The key details are straightforward. Four suits requires you to track spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds. The How to Play and Tips & Strategy pages explain the same rules used by the game. One suit gives you a useful place to learn descending sequences and empty-column moves. Two suits adds the need to organize spades and hearts separately.
