How to Play Spider Relaxed
Game Objective
Remove all the cards, leaving none in the stock or tableaus.
Tableau Rules

- Any card may move to an empty tableau.
- The tableaus build down by rank regardless of suit. Complete sequences of the same suit starting with a King and ending with an Ace are automatically removed.

- Sequences of cards built down by the same suit can move together as a group.
Stock Rules
- The stock deals one card face up to each of the tableaus when tapped.
