Choose a starting deal
A few details help explain this feature. Numbered Deals lets you choose a reproducible Spider starting layout on heryhuang.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
A few details help explain this feature. Loading a different number can replace progress saved for the same mode and suit setting. Load deal applies the number and suit setting in the controls. An active unfinished game asks for confirmation before loading another selection. The Deal number field accepts positive whole numbers within the displayed range.
Number and suits belong together
The same deal number and suit setting produce the same opening cards with this game's shuffle algorithm. A deal number identifies a starting layout rather than a saved position halfway through play. Changing the suit setting changes the deck used to create the deal. Move choices after the opening are entirely up to the player.
Share a starting point
Keep these points in mind. Copy deal link includes the selected number and suit setting in the page's link fragment. Sharing a link does not transfer another player's move history or statistics. A shared numbered link opens the corresponding starting deal or matching local progress. When automatic copying is unavailable, the game displays a selectable link field.
Collect eight sequences
Here are the details for this mode. A qualifying face-up run is removed automatically. Win by completing eight same-suit King-to-Ace sequences. Numbered Spider uses 104 cards arranged in ten columns with a stock pile. A full descending sequence containing different suits stays on the tableau.
Keep movable groups together
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
The following details apply here. Undo can restore the position before a stock deal while the snapshot is available. Fill every empty column before using the stock. Five stock deals are available at the beginning of a numbered game. Each stock deal adds one card to each of the ten columns.
Replay and new numbers
The following details apply here. Comparing different openings on one number can help you study your own decisions. 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.
No promise for every number
The following details apply here. Winning Deals provides a separate collection with verified legal solutions. The Hint button reports legal options rather than solving the whole game. Some choices can make a position harder even when another line might succeed. Numbered shuffles are not advertised as guaranteed winnable.
