Welcome to Relaxed Spider
The following details apply here. The game still uses 104 cards in ten columns. The objective remains eight complete same-suit King-to-Ace runs. Relaxed Spider on 781939.com permits stock deals while columns are empty. Choose one suit, two suits or four suits using the game controls.
Deal into empty columns
The following details apply here. A stock card dealt to an empty column becomes that column's first face-up card. The relaxed stock rule does not allow mixed-suit groups to move together. An empty column no longer prevents a stock deal in this variant. The relaxed stock rule does not change the rank requirement for ordinary moves.
Read the opening
A few details help explain this feature. The opening tableau contains 54 cards. The first four columns have six cards each and the remaining six have five. The stock contains fifty cards for five later deals. Only the bottom card of each opening column is face up.
Descending rank placement
A few details help explain this feature. An Ace cannot receive a lower-ranked card. The two cards do not need to share a suit for a single-card placement. An exposed card may land on another exposed card exactly one rank higher. A King needs an empty destination because no rank is higher.
Move a group
The following details apply here. A descending group moves as a unit only when every selected card shares a suit. A break in rank prevents the entire selected group from moving together. Same-suit building can reduce the work needed to separate mixed sequences later. A suit change can leave a smaller movable group at the bottom of a column.
Keep space available
A few details help explain this feature. A new stock row fills every empty column with one card. Any exposed card or legal same-suit group can occupy an empty column. Empty columns remain useful for separating temporary mixed builds. You may preserve an empty column until you decide to deal from the stock.
Bring in another row
A few details help explain this feature. You cannot direct an individual stock card to a chosen destination. A stock deal places one card onto each of the ten columns. Dealing can block an existing sequence as well as reveal new combinations. Undo restores the previous arrangement when the stock-deal snapshot is available.
Collect matching runs
A few details help explain this feature. Eight collected runs are required to finish Relaxed Spider. The game removes a complete run automatically at the bottom of a column. Changing the number of suits does not change the number of required runs. A complete run contains thirteen face-up cards in one suit from King to Ace.
Practice the variant
Here are the details for this mode. Hints identify legal options without guaranteeing a win. New game creates a fresh shuffle in the selected suit setting. Random relaxed deals are not presented as guaranteed solvable. Replay restores the same shuffle for another attempt.
