Meet Spiderette
Keep these points in mind. The smaller deck does not remove the need to manage suit changes. Four complete same-suit King-to-Ace runs win the game. Spiderette on unclesc.com uses one 52-card deck with all four suits. The tableau contains seven columns rather than ten.
The opening staircase
Keep these points in mind. The seventh opening column contains seven cards. Only the bottom card of each initial column is face up. The first opening column contains one card and each following column contains one more. The opening tableau contains 28 cards altogether.
The remaining deck
A few details help explain this feature. The final stock deal contains three cards for the first three columns. A full stock deal adds one card to each of the seven columns. The stock is used in deals of seven, seven, seven and three cards. Spiderette begins with 24 cards in the stock.
Place an exposed card
Any exposed card may enter an empty column. A destination card may belong to a different suit. A King can enter only an empty column because no rank is higher. A single exposed card can land on another exposed card exactly one rank higher.
Move a sequence
A few details help explain this feature. A movable group must be face up and descend in one suit. The selected group's leading card determines which destination rank is legal. A mixed-suit descending sequence cannot move as one group. Selecting a shorter matching segment can reveal an available group move.
Expose another card
A few details help explain this feature. 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. A stock deal may interrupt a sequence you were assembling. This Spiderette version requires every column to contain a card before a stock deal. An empty column prevents dealing even when only the final three stock cards remain. Any valid movable group can fill an empty column.
Four complete runs
A few details help explain this feature. Four collected runs account for every card in the deck. A complete face-up run is removed automatically from the bottom of a column. A qualifying run contains thirteen cards of one suit from King down to Ace. One run is needed for spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds.
Useful practice controls
A few details help explain this feature. Hint suggests a legal move without checking every possible future continuation. A random Spiderette shuffle is not advertised as guaranteed winnable. Replay starts the same Spiderette shuffle again. Undo reverses a successful move or stock deal while recent history is available.
