How to Play Spider Solitaire
Spider is a classic single-player card game. Play unlimited games free on your phone, desktop, or in full screen. No download, no registration required.
Objective
Remove all cards by building complete same-suit sequences from King down to Ace. Completed sequences are automatically removed.
Rules
Move cards between columns in descending order. In 1-suit mode any descending sequence works; in harder modes only same-suit sequences move as a group. Deal 10 new cards from stock when stuck.
Strategies to Win
Build same-suit sequences early. Keep empty columns for temporary storage. Avoid mixing suits. Plan ahead to expose face-down cards.
