Meet Spiderette

The following details apply here. Spiderette on cs3q.com uses one 52-card deck with all four suits. Four complete same-suit King-to-Ace runs win the game. The smaller deck does not remove the need to manage suit changes. The tableau contains seven columns rather than ten.

Seven growing columns

Here are the details for this mode. Only the bottom card of each initial column is face up. The seventh opening column contains seven cards. The opening tableau contains 28 cards altogether. The first opening column contains one card and each following column contains one more.

The remaining deck

The stock is used in deals of seven, seven, seven and three cards. A full stock deal adds one card to each of the seven columns. The final stock deal contains three cards for the first three columns. Spiderette begins with 24 cards in the stock.

Build down by rank

A few details help explain this feature. A destination card may belong to a different suit. A single exposed card can land on another exposed card exactly one rank higher. A King can enter only an empty column because no rank is higher. Any exposed card may enter an empty column.

One suit travels together

The following details apply here. Selecting a shorter matching segment can reveal an available group move. The selected group's leading card determines which destination rank is legal. A movable group must be face up and descend in one suit. A mixed-suit descending sequence cannot move as one group.

Expose another card

Keep these points in mind. An exposed hidden card can create another possible destination. Moving all exposed cards off a hidden card turns that hidden card face up. No separate click is needed to reveal a newly uncovered card. Undo restores a hidden card's earlier state when the revealing action is reversed.

Prepare to use the stock

A few details help explain this feature. This Spiderette version requires every column to contain a card before a stock deal. Any valid movable group can fill an empty column. An empty column prevents dealing even when only the final three stock cards remain. A stock deal may interrupt a sequence you were assembling.

Four complete runs

Here are the details for this mode. A qualifying run contains thirteen cards of one suit from King down to Ace. Four collected runs account for every card in the deck. A complete face-up run is removed automatically from the bottom of a column. One run is needed for spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds.

Useful practice controls

The following details apply here. Replay starts the same Spiderette shuffle again. Undo reverses a successful move or stock deal while recent history is available. A random Spiderette shuffle is not advertised as guaranteed winnable. Hint suggests a legal move without checking every possible future continuation.
