Today's deal is the same for everyone. Play it, keep your streak going and come back tomorrow for the next one.

The daily deal is the same for everyone. You can choose 1, 2 or 4 suits.

Your game and stats are saved in this browser.

Daily Spider Solitaire gives you one new Spider deal each day. Everyone who plays on the same day gets the same cards, because the date picks the deal. A new deal starts at midnight UTC. Your streak and stats are saved in your browser, and the game is free with no sign-up.

How the daily deal works

Each day, the date picks one deal. It’s not random per player, so the board you see is the board everyone else sees today. That makes it easy to compare: did you win, how many moves did it take, what was your score?

The day runs on UTC, not your local clock. In New York, the new deal arrives at 7 p.m. in winter and 8 p.m. in summer. In London it’s midnight in winter and 1 a.m. in summer.

The rules are standard Spider. Build down by rank, move only runs of one suit as a group, and clear each King-to-Ace run in one suit. If you need a refresher, read the Spider rules before you start.

Your streak

Win the daily deal on back-to-back days and your streak grows. The game stores your streak in your browser, along with your other stats, so you don’t need an account.

That also means the streak belongs to this browser on this device. If you clear your browser data, use private browsing, or switch from your phone to your laptop, you’ll start a fresh streak there.

Tips for the daily game

Take your time. There’s no prize for speed on the daily deal unless you want one. Look at every column before your first move and spot which ones you can empty fastest.

Use undo freely. Undo has no limit. Each one costs 1 point, so if you’re playing for score, plan first. If you’re playing to keep your streak, undo as much as you need.

Ask for a hint when you’re stuck. The hint button shows a move you can make. It’s better to use one than to deal from the stock too early.

Deal only when you’re ready. Each deal puts a card on every column. Make every in-suit join you can first, and fill any empty column, since the stock won’t deal while one is open.

The Spider strategy guide covers these ideas in more depth.

Want more than one game a day?

The daily deal is one game. When you’ve played it, you can keep going on the regular pages, with a fresh deal every time:

Every regular deal also has a number you can share by link, so you can send a friend a hard game any day of the week. Or go back to the Spider Solitaire homepage game and pick your suit count there.

Frequently asked questions

When does the daily Spider deal change?

At midnight UTC every day. That’s 7 p.m. in New York in winter and 8 p.m. in summer, and midnight in London in winter and 1 a.m. in summer. The date picks the deal, so everyone who plays between one midnight UTC and the next gets the same cards.

Does everyone get the same daily deal?

Yes. The deal comes from the date, not from your device, so every player sees the same cards on the same UTC day. That makes the daily game a fair way to compare with friends. You can talk about the same board and the same tricky columns, then see who needed fewer moves.

How does the daily streak work?

Win the daily deal on consecutive days and your streak goes up. The game saves it in your browser, with no account needed. Because it lives in your browser, clearing your browser data, using private browsing or switching devices starts a new streak on that browser.

Do I need an account for the daily deal?

No. The daily deal is free and you don’t sign up for anything. Your streak and stats are stored in your browser on the device you play on. That keeps things simple, but it also means a new browser or device starts its own streak from the beginning.
