Jumping Spider

2 Decks. Medium (80%). Mostly Skill.

Object

To group all the cards in sets of 13 cards in sequence down in suit from King to Ace within the tableau.

Layout

•	9 tableau piles - build down regardless of suit. Groups of cards in sequence down regardless of suit may be moved as a unit. A space can be filled by any card or legal group of cards. At the start of the game 4 cards are dealt to each pile, alternating face down and face up.

•	stock (top left, face down) - deals 1 card to each tableau pile by clicking. All tableau piles must have at least one card in them before you can do this.

Notes

•	The objective is to group all the cards in sets of 13 cards, from King to Ace down in suit. Whenever such a group is formed in a pile, it is automatically removed from play.

•	When the stock is empty and you are unable to form the tableaus into sets of 13 cards of each suit, the game is lost.

History
