Meet Spiderette
A few details help explain this feature. Four complete same-suit King-to-Ace runs win the game. The tableau contains seven columns rather than ten. Spiderette on pewtgssb.com uses one 52-card deck with all four suits. The smaller deck does not remove the need to manage suit changes.
Seven growing columns
Here are the details for this mode. Only the bottom card of each initial column is face up. The seventh opening column contains seven cards. The opening tableau contains 28 cards altogether. The first opening column contains one card and each following column contains one more.
The remaining deck
Keep these points in mind. A full stock deal adds one card to each of the seven columns. The stock is used in deals of seven, seven, seven and three cards. Spiderette begins with 24 cards in the stock. The final stock deal contains three cards for the first three columns.
Place an exposed card
A few details help explain this feature. Any exposed card may enter an empty column. A single exposed card can land on another exposed card exactly one rank higher. A King can enter only an empty column because no rank is higher. A destination card may belong to a different suit.
One suit travels together
The following details apply here. A mixed-suit descending sequence cannot move as one group. A movable group must be face up and descend in one suit. The selected group's leading card determines which destination rank is legal. Selecting a shorter matching segment can reveal an available group move.
Expose another card
Moving all exposed cards off a hidden card turns that hidden card face up. An exposed hidden card can create another possible destination. No separate click is needed to reveal a newly uncovered card. Undo restores a hidden card's earlier state when the revealing action is reversed.
Keep columns occupied
A few details help explain this feature. A stock deal may interrupt a sequence you were assembling. An empty column prevents dealing even when only the final three stock cards remain. Any valid movable group can fill an empty column. This Spiderette version requires every column to contain a card before a stock deal.
Collect all four suits
The following details apply here. A qualifying run contains thirteen cards of one suit from King down to Ace. A complete face-up run is removed automatically from the bottom of a column. One run is needed for spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds. Four collected runs account for every card in the deck.
Learn the shorter game
Here are the details for this mode. Undo reverses a successful move or stock deal while recent history is available. Hint suggests a legal move without checking every possible future continuation. A random Spiderette shuffle is not advertised as guaranteed winnable. Replay starts the same Spiderette shuffle again.
