NOTES FROM THE TABLE

A more flexible stock rule

A few details help explain this feature. The game still uses 104 cards in ten columns. Relaxed Spider on zdjx1.com permits stock deals while columns are empty. The objective remains eight complete same-suit King-to-Ace runs. Choose one suit, two suits or four suits using the game controls.

The relaxed difference

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 change the rank requirement for ordinary moves. An empty column no longer prevents a stock deal in this variant. The relaxed stock rule does not allow mixed-suit groups to move together.

Ten columns and a stock

Here are the details for this mode. The opening tableau contains 54 cards. The first four columns have six cards each and the remaining six have five. Only the bottom card of each opening column is face up. The stock contains fifty cards for five later deals.

Descending rank placement

A few details help explain this feature. An exposed card may land on another exposed card exactly one rank higher. The two cards do not need to share a suit for a single-card placement. A King needs an empty destination because no rank is higher. An Ace cannot receive a lower-ranked card.

Move a group

Here are the details for this mode. Same-suit building can reduce the work needed to separate mixed sequences later. A descending group moves as a unit only when every selected card shares a suit. A suit change can leave a smaller movable group at the bottom of a column. A break in rank prevents the entire selected group from moving together.

Keep space available

A new stock row fills every empty column with one card. You may preserve an empty column until you decide to deal from the stock. Any exposed card or legal same-suit group can occupy an empty column. Empty columns remain useful for separating temporary mixed builds.

Bring in another row

Here are the details for this mode. Undo restores the previous arrangement when the stock-deal snapshot is available. Dealing can block an existing sequence as well as reveal new combinations. A stock deal places one card onto each of the ten columns. You cannot direct an individual stock card to a chosen destination.

Collect matching runs

Here are the details for this mode. Changing the number of suits does not change the number of required runs. The game removes a complete run automatically at the bottom of a column. Eight collected runs are required to finish Relaxed Spider. A complete run contains thirteen face-up cards in one suit from King to Ace.

Try another decision

The following details apply here. Random relaxed deals are not presented as guaranteed solvable. Hints identify legal options without guaranteeing a win. New game creates a fresh shuffle in the selected suit setting. Replay restores the same shuffle for another attempt.

Resume locally

A few details help explain this feature. My Statistics displays relaxed starts and wins in separate rows. Each relaxed suit setting has its own current local game. Relaxed Spider keeps its saved games separate from standard Spider when saving is enabled. Privacy & Cookie Settings lets you turn saving off or clear local records.
