It’s rated 4+ and currently has 114+ ratings on the App Store.
What Makes Classic Spider Solitaire HD Stand Out
Could never resist the attraction of the computer game Spider Solitaire? It has now landed on the AppStore. You can even play it to kill the boring time on your commuting. Spider Solitaire, what a familiar picture! During the years without pervading online games, this classic card-game had brought us uncountable happy moments. In those times, several students gathered round a computer and waited for their turn to play the game, which made the computer class the most cheerful one. As is known to all, the game is very hard to win (never try to seek psychological comfort from playing the junior level monochrome game, which is prepared for the small kids), and it is which aroused the great enthusiasm of some players. Since it’s hard to win, the victory after a hard battle brings a stronger sense of achievement.
Game features:
- Completely copy the PC version
- Excellent control
Spider Solitaire: rules and basics
The object
Remove all the cards from the table in the fewest number of moves.
The table
Spider Solitaire is played with two decks of cards. Depending on the difficulty level, the decks consist of either one, two, or four different suits.
The cards are arranged in ten columns. The top card in each column is face up, the rest are face down. The remaining cards are piled in the lower-right corner of the table.
How to play
To win, you must remove all the cards from the table by building columns organized in descending order, from king to ace. At intermediate and advanced levels, the cards must also match suit.
When you succeed in building a sequentially-ordered column, it flies off the table.
If you run out of moves, click the pile at the bottom of the table and Windows deals a new row of cards.
You aren't limited to moving just one card at a time. If a run of cards are all in the same suit, and arranged in numeric order, you can drag them around as if they were a single card.
Scoring
You start with 500 points. From this, Windows subtracts the number of moves it takes to finish a game. It then increases this subtotal by 100 times the number of runs removed from the table.
This Puzzle game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Great game, would like to see some world rankings added. Lol.
Really liked this game until the latest update. Now even when the iPad is in airplane mode, the ads invade the bottom of the screen, popping and flashing. The game is now distracting and irritating.
Excellent game; only play hard level. Definitely winnable.
First review was 5 stars then a update occurred and ads were inserted, they were in before the game started, after the game ended and the abundance of ads caused us to write another review at a two star rating. Not long after another update occurred removing the ads, the game is back to 5 stars.
Good game. The only thing we'd like to see is the ability to replay the game.
We play this game everyday and we believe we paid for this many years ago,now after every game there are ads. Sooo many ads???? Why?? All of the sudden???. When we went to app to ask why and to see if it could be corrected, you can't even call or write to anyone cause it's all in Chinese! We will have to delete as well.
The new ads are horrible. Especially since they now disrupt the game and create noise. We play in SILENCE. Deleting after many years of loving this app.
Is a nice version of spider solitaire but it doesn't play well with Game Center so can only give 3 stars…update 07/09/2015…… Game volume is out of control……even with our iPad Air 2 volume on mute the game screams all the moves…..fix please…….woke up our neighbors 3 doors down…..latest update…03/02/16 still has a volume problem on our iPad….even with our volume on mute the sound is annoyingly loud…otherwise a fun game.
Every update this game just gets better and better.
Love this game because it engages your mind and sharpens your powers of observation. There are different levels of difficulty so it is actually possible to win once in a while. Lots of fun.
Great game but can't listen to our music on our ipad and play this at the same time. When we open it it closes out our music. Still addictive.
While is working properly, it is a good version. We had to erase all our scores, because when you try to move the cards, they move slow or get stock. Its like they are frozen. We got this game because it is the version our parents used… Had to erase theirs as well due to the same problem. Just get another version.
Tried 3 other spider games and nothing like the classic…this one is.
We love the challenge, and we can proudly say we finally won a game hardest level of Spider solitaire.
We really don't like this version with the buttons on top. It's much easier to play with the buttons on the bottom. Some of the hints aren't the best choices. Still a fun, addicting game.
We don't like the changes in the board. The controls on the bottom were more intuitive for us. Game play seems unchanged. And is fine.
This solitaire game is extremely hard played on NORMAL level! We DO NOT recommend his game to anyone that does not like a serious challenge. It's more frustrating than fun.
We love this game! Need to be on your toes to win, but that makes it more fun.
Lots of hours playing this game. When you play music from any source, it stops the animation and you have to re-select the music. It worked fine on the previous version. Thanks for the free edition. The ads are not annoying and allow playing without interruption.
Nicely done. Good version of spider.
Won 3 games this evening with crowns!!!! Super fun and easy to play.
We play multiple versions of spider solitaire and so far this one is our favorite!!!!!!! Great job.
Love love love this game, really makes the gray matter roll with the punches!!!,!! :). 5 stars. Won once again, we feel awesome, we can still function. Thank you spider solitaire.
Love this game to the max so addition.
Love, love, love this game! It is absolutely addicting from the first time you play.
This game is so good and we love that it has different levels.
We've spent more time on our IPad playing this game than getting any work done. We truly have other things to do, but if we pick up our IPad before we start our chores it is all over. We would recommend this game to anyone that likes card games.
Love this game, easy to load and use and advertising small for a free app. Our favorite game to play.
Very good interface, and fun to play. You cannot take back a deal, though. Would get 5 stars if there were a stats function.
But finally did. Back and back to finally get the right solution we on der what the secret is to winning the hard level. Only won it twice in many tries. We are winnin! Once in every 100 tries.
Love the game. Wish it had a touch screen to move the cards. Also a few instructions. Still, will play it all the time like we do another version.
Love the game……. When it works. Every time we download an update for any other app, this one won't fully open, keeps crashing. We have to delete it and reinstall it. PLEASE FIX THIS.
One of the best free solitaire games.
Good options. Neat achievements.
We used to play this on the computer, but forgot all about it. Great game. Works great on touchscreen.
Neat little time waster. Unfortunately, you cannot turn the sounds off or take back a move.
We enjoyed playing this game all of a sudden you must have a game center log on. We will remove this app and be sure not to download any others from this developer. What a shame.
Liked this app until it tried to force us to open game center. Won't be playing it any more.
Sharp graphics, quick play, a really fun game.
Best card game on iPad! Addictive.
Replay should be re-named "new game". Replay should give you the same game over. Change font style to something easier to read. Thanks.
