Choose between Klondike and Spider
Both games use familiar playing cards, but they organize the board differently. Klondike has seven columns and four foundations. Spider has ten columns and collects complete runs from inside the tableau. You play alone against the arrangement of cards, without wagers or an account.
| Feature | Klondike | Spider |
|---|---|---|
| Cards | 52 | 104 |
| Goal | Four foundations, ace to king | Eight same-suit runs, king to ace |
| Empty column | King-led sequence only | Any movable sequence |
| Modes | Turn 1, Turn 3 | 1, 2, or 4 suits |
Start with the rules you already know
Choose Solitaire if alternating red and black cards feels familiar. Turn 1 is a useful introduction because it gives you a chance to play every stock card. Turn 3 adds a restriction: only the top card of each newly drawn group is available. Both versions allow unlimited stock recycling here.
Choose Spider Solitaire if you enjoy rebuilding long sequences. One suit lets you focus on ranks and empty columns. Two or four suits require more care because only descending sequences in the same suit can move as a unit. Any rank can fill an empty Spider column, but every column must be occupied before dealing another row.
Useful controls, no rush
Each game includes hints, undo, restart, daily deals, and automatic progress saving in this browser. A hint identifies a legal move; it is not a full solver. Shuffled card deals are not advertised as guaranteed wins. Restart repeats the original deal so you can try another route.
On a phone, tap a source card and then its destination. Use Enlarge if you prefer larger cards and scroll across the board. Visit a game while connected before relying on offline play. Storage is local to your browser, so clearing site data removes saves.
Learn one move at a time
Our Klondike rules and Spider rules explain setup, movement, stock behavior, and winning conditions. The Turn 1 versus Turn 3 guide helps you choose a mode. If you would rather match pictures than build sequences, try Mahjong Solitaire for a different kind of pause.
