If you have Windows there is a good chance that you already have this game on your computer and also a good chance that you have not bothered looking at it or having a go at it.
So why should you go and play this game? Well I think that it really is a game you can play to get rid of stress!
When I first found this game I played it when I was a bit stressed out and it was super. Afterwards I found out that I was not alone in feeling this when this game was played. You can also play it at work as its on your computer!
The object of Spider Solitaire is to remove all the cards from the ten stacks at the top of the window in the least number of moves.
To remove cards from the stacks you have to move one card from one to the other column until you have a complete suite lined up from king to ace. When this happens those cards disappear to the bottom of the window.
You start of this game with two decks of cards. When you get smarter at it you can go up to 4 decks. You can choose very easy, easy or hard.
They are dealt with the cards facing down with the top card facing up.
To move a card drag it from one stack to another. It must be put on a higher card but it doesnt matter which colour. You can move more than one as long as they are all of the same colour. You can also move any to an empty column.
When you have done as much as you can you click on deal or the cards in the bottom right hand corner and another 10 cards, one in each column will be dealt.
As soon as you have a suit they will disappear. If you get stuck you can go to the game menu and click on show an available move.
If you are playing with two people, not at the same time though, you have a counter that shows you how many moves you have made and the points you have scored.
If you havent time to finish the whole game you can save it.
I found the two pack game quite easy to do but, there are times, many times, when you cannot get them all out.
When you feel able try the 4 pack game. I have never achieved this!
At the end of the game there is quite a good show to tell you that you have won but I will let you get there to see that for yourselves.
Summary: a game on windows that I think does away with stress
also on dooyoo.

Review of Solitaire
Advantages: It passes the time, it's a good version of a classic game Disadvantages: It lacks a high score table, varied decks, and is a bit boring really!
