A guide to your next move.
A more flexible stock rule
Here are the details for this mode. The game still uses 104 cards in ten columns. Relaxed Spider on vvvorx.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.
Deal into empty columns
The relaxed stock rule does not allow mixed-suit groups to move together. 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.
Read the opening
Keep these points in mind. 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.
Move a single card
A few details help explain this feature. 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. An Ace cannot receive a lower-ranked card.
Follow one suit
A few details help explain this feature. Same-suit building can reduce the work needed to separate mixed sequences later. A break in rank prevents the entire selected group from moving together. 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.
Keep space available
Keep these points in mind. Empty columns remain useful for separating temporary mixed builds. You may preserve an empty column until you decide to deal from the stock. A new stock row fills every empty column with one card. Any exposed card or legal same-suit group can occupy an empty column.
Bring in another row
The following details apply here. Undo restores the previous arrangement when the stock-deal snapshot is available. A stock deal places one card onto each of the ten columns. You cannot direct an individual stock card to a chosen destination. Dealing can block an existing sequence as well as reveal new combinations.
Collect matching runs
The following details apply here. A complete run contains thirteen face-up cards in one suit from King to Ace. 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.
Try another decision
Random relaxed deals are not presented as guaranteed solvable. New game creates a fresh shuffle in the selected suit setting. Hints identify legal options without guaranteeing a win. Replay restores the same shuffle for another attempt.
Separate variant progress
A few details help explain this feature. Relaxed Spider keeps its saved games separate from standard Spider when saving is enabled. My Statistics displays relaxed starts and wins in separate rows. Each relaxed suit setting has its own current local game. Privacy & Cookie Settings lets you turn saving off or clear local records.
