What the app does

  • Two-deck Spider: 104 cards, 10 columns, 5 deals, 8 runs to remove.
  • Three difficulty levels: 1 suit ("Easy"), 2 suits ("Medium"), 4 suits ("Hard"), selectable in the New Game window.
  • Two rules: Classic, where a group can be moved if it is all of one suit, or Relaxed, where suits can be mixed.
  • Game code: each deal has a code (for example, SP1-S1C-AAAAAAD) that you can copy, paste or enter to replay the same deal or offer it to someone else. The shuffle is calculated on the device, with no account required.
  • Touch controls: double-tap to move to the best column, drag and drop, highlighted legal destination columns, a rule reminder after a rejected move, pinch to zoom.
  • Undo the last 100 actions; pause by tapping the timer.
  • Statistics kept separately for each rule, and a ranking of the 10 best results.
  • Appearance: 4 table backgrounds (sage green, slate blue, plum, sand), 5 card back colors, a light or dark theme; 36 languages.
