Welcome to Relaxed Spider

The following details apply here. Relaxed Spider on czhylk.com permits stock deals while columns are empty. Choose one suit, two suits or four suits using the game controls. The game still uses 104 cards in ten columns. The objective remains eight complete same-suit King-to-Ace runs.

The relaxed difference

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. 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

The stock contains fifty cards for five later deals. 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 opening tableau contains 54 cards.

Descending rank placement

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

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.

Stock deals are still shared

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

Clear the table

A few details help explain this feature. Eight collected runs are required to finish Relaxed Spider. 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.

Try another decision

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

Separate variant progress

The following details apply here. 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.
