NOTES FROM THE TABLE

Choose a starting deal

A few details help explain this feature. Numbered Deals lets you choose a reproducible Spider starting layout on ioccupants.com. The number and suit setting together identify the starting shuffle. Enter a whole deal number between 1 and 4294967295. Select one suit, two suits or four suits before loading the deal.

Use the controls

The following details apply here. Loading a different number can replace progress saved for the same mode and suit setting. The Deal number field accepts positive whole numbers within the displayed range. An active unfinished game asks for confirmation before loading another selection. Load deal applies the number and suit setting in the controls.

Number and suits belong together

A few details help explain this feature. The same deal number and suit setting produce the same opening cards with this game's shuffle algorithm. Changing the suit setting changes the deck used to create the deal. A deal number identifies a starting layout rather than a saved position halfway through play. Move choices after the opening are entirely up to the player.

Copy the deal link

A shared numbered link opens the corresponding starting deal or matching local progress. Sharing a link does not transfer another player's move history or statistics. Copy deal link includes the selected number and suit setting in the page's link fragment. When automatic copying is unavailable, the game displays a selectable link field.

Collect eight sequences

Win by completing eight same-suit King-to-Ace sequences. A qualifying face-up run is removed automatically. Numbered Spider uses 104 cards arranged in ten columns with a stock pile. A full descending sequence containing different suits stays on the tableau.

Build by rank

Here are the details for this mode. A descending same-suit group can move together as one unit. Any legal movable group may enter an empty column. An exposed card can move onto a card exactly one rank higher. The destination card may belong to another suit in standard Spider.

The stock requirement

Each stock deal adds one card to each of the ten columns. Fill every empty column before using the stock. Five stock deals are available at the beginning of a numbered game. Undo can restore the position before a stock deal while the snapshot is available.

Explore one layout

Keep these points in mind. Replay resets the current number to its original shuffle. The current number remains visible beside the game controls. New game chooses another deal number for the current suit setting. Comparing different openings on one number can help you study your own decisions.

A reproducible deal is not a proof

A few details help explain this feature. Winning Deals provides a separate collection with verified legal solutions. Some choices can make a position harder even when another line might succeed. Numbered shuffles are not advertised as guaranteed winnable. The Hint button reports legal options rather than solving the whole game.

Progress on this browser

A few details help explain this feature. My Statistics lists numbered starts and wins separately from ordinary Spider games. A matching saved game resumes when you revisit its number.
