Spider Solitaire is a fast-paced solitaire variant with a competitive twist.

The goal of the game is simple: score more points than your opponent to win!

Basic Rules:

• Arrange the Tableau stacks in King to Ace order.

• Clear cards from the Tableau by making a full stack of King to Ace.

• If you can’t make any more moves, draw new cards from the Draw pile.

• If you make a mistake, use the Undo button. Drawing cannot be undone.

• The match ends if all cards are cleared from the table or you run out of time.

• Not all decks are solvable. If you run out of moves, Pause and select End Game.

• Each match has a 5 minute time limit.

Each match of Spider Solitaire is played against another player to see who can get the highest score.

• You are matched against players of similar skill, but you may not be playing at the same time.

• Both players get the same arrangement of cards in the Tableau and Draw piles.

• Solve more cards faster than your opponent to win!

In Spider Solitaire all cards are the same suit and there are 78 cards total, consisting of 6 sets of King through Ace.

The play area is made of two piles of cards: the Tableau stacks and the Draw pile.

Tableau Stacks:

• 38 cards total: 30 face-down and 8 face-up.

• Drag and drop the cards in the Tableau to arrange them in King to Ace order.

• Clear cards from the Tableau by making a full stack of King to Ace.

• Any card can be placed in an empty stack.

Draw Pile:

• 40 cards total, all face-down until drawn.

• When drawing cards, one card is placed in every Tableau stack even if it’s empty.

Undo:

• If you make a mistake, use the Undo button.

• Unlimited uses, but can only undo the most recent action.

• Cannot undo clearing a stack or drawing cards.

• Allows peeking at face-down cards and more, but use sparingly because...

• You lose points if you undo revealing a face-down card.

Finishing Early:

• Not all decks can be solved!

• If you run out of moves, hit Pause and select End Game.

• Recognizing when there are no more moves before your opponent is often the difference between victory and defeat.
