A number for your shuffle
Enter a whole deal number between 1 and 4294967295. Numbered Deals lets you choose a reproducible Spider starting layout on pnolf.com. The number and suit setting together identify the starting shuffle. Select one suit, two suits or four suits before loading the deal.
Load a chosen number
An active unfinished game asks for confirmation before loading another selection. Load deal applies the number and suit setting in the controls. The Deal number field accepts positive whole numbers within the displayed range. Loading a different number can replace progress saved for the same mode and suit setting.
Reproduce the layout
Here are the details for this mode. Changing the suit setting changes the deck used to create the deal. Move choices after the opening are entirely up to the player. The same deal number and suit setting produce the same opening cards with this game's shuffle algorithm. A deal number identifies a starting layout rather than a saved position halfway through play.
Copy the deal link
A few details help explain this feature. Copy deal link includes the selected number and suit setting in the page's link fragment. A shared numbered link opens the corresponding starting deal or matching local progress. When automatic copying is unavailable, the game displays a selectable link field. Sharing a link does not transfer another player's move history or statistics.
Collect eight sequences
Keep these points in mind. Win by completing eight same-suit King-to-Ace sequences. Numbered Spider uses 104 cards arranged in ten columns with a stock pile. A full descending sequence containing different suits stays on the tableau. A qualifying face-up run is removed automatically.
Build by rank
The destination card may belong to another suit in standard Spider. Any legal movable group may enter an empty column. An exposed card can move onto a card exactly one rank higher. A descending same-suit group can move together as one unit.
Prepare another row
Keep these points in mind. Fill every empty column before using the stock. Each stock deal adds one card to each of the ten columns. Five stock deals are available at the beginning of a numbered game. Undo can restore the position before a stock deal while the snapshot is available.
Explore one layout
The current number remains visible beside the game controls. New game chooses another deal number for the current suit setting. Comparing different openings on one number can help you study your own decisions. Replay resets the current number to its original shuffle.
A reproducible deal is not a proof
The following details apply here. The Hint button reports legal options rather than solving the whole game. Some choices can make a position harder even when another line might succeed. Numbered shuffles are not advertised as guaranteed winnable. Winning Deals provides a separate collection with verified legal solutions.
