How to Play Daily Deal: Spider

Daily Deal: Spider uses standard Spider solitaire mechanics centered on suit building and move efficiency:

• Daily Seed: Everyone plays the exact same card layout each day for fair comparison.
• Tableau Stacking: Build columns downward in sequence (e.g., 8 on 9, 7 on 8), regardless of suit. However, only fully matching suited runs can be moved as a unit.
• Empty Columns: Any card or valid sequence of cards can be moved into an empty tableau space.
• Completing Suits: Assemble a full 13-card sequence of the same suit from King down to Ace to clear it from the tableau. Clear all cards to win.
• Stock Dealing: When you have no available moves, deal one card onto each of the 10 tableau columns from the stock. All tableau columns must contain at least one card before you can deal from the stock.

Controls & Features

• Reveal Cards: Tap any face-down tableau card exposed at the top of a column to flip it over.
• Auto-Move: Tap or drag cards to instantly move valid runs or single cards across the board.
• Undo Button: Reconsider a move or test a path without penalty using the toolbar undo feature.
• Move Multipliers: Flipping hidden tableau cards and dealing new cards from the stock do not count against your overall move count, letting you explore options without inflating your par score.

Strategy Tips to Beat Par

• Expose Hidden Cards First: Prioritize flipping face-down tableau cards over dealing from the stock to maximize empty spaces and movement options early.
• Build in Same Suits: Whenever possible, stack cards of the same suit. Same-suit stacks retain their mobility, whereas mixed-suit stacks lock up cards until you can separate them.
• Clear Tableau Columns: Empty columns are crucial in Spider solitaire. Create empty spaces early to temporarily store cards and reorganize mixed-suit stacks into clean, single-suit sequences.
