Office Spider Solitaire

Ten stacks of cards stare you down, and all you need is one seven of spades to land on an eight of hearts to get the chain reaction going. That's the moment Office Spider Solitaire is built around, and it's why you'll tell yourself "just one more round" more often than you'd like to admit.

The setup is simple: four stacks of six cards, six stacks of five, and the top card flipped face up. Your job is to clear the whole table by building suited runs from king down to ace. Drag a card onto one that's a single point higher in value, and if you've got several cards in a row of consecutive value, move them together as a unit.

What keeps it interesting is the difficulty dial. Play with one suit for a gentler ride, or crank it up to two or four suits when you want the sequences to actually fight back. It's a solid pick if you already like Cards games or lean toward 1 Player Games you can pick up and put down without losing your place.

No download, no fuss - just open your browser and start sorting.

Clear the entire table by arranging every card into suited sequences running from king down to ace.

You'll start with four stacks of six cards and six stacks of five, with the top card dealt face up. Drag any card onto another card that's exactly one point higher in value - for instance, a seven of spades onto an eight of hearts. If several cards already sit in consecutive order, you can drag that whole run at once.

Start on the one-suit difficulty if you're easing in, since fewer suits mean more forgiving matches before you move up to two or four suits.
