Choose a starting deal

Numbered Deals lets you choose a reproducible Spider starting layout on hullbreaker.com. Select one suit, two suits or four suits before loading the deal. Enter a whole deal number between 1 and 4294967295. The number and suit setting together identify the starting shuffle.

Use the controls

A few details help explain this feature. 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

The following details apply here. A deal number identifies a starting layout rather than a saved position halfway through play. Changing the suit setting changes the deck used to create the deal. The same deal number and suit setting produce the same opening cards with this game's shuffle algorithm. Move choices after the opening are entirely up to the player.

Copy the deal link

The following details apply here. A shared numbered link opens the corresponding starting deal or matching local progress. Sharing a link does not transfer another player's move history or statistics. When automatic copying is unavailable, the game displays a selectable link field. Copy deal link includes the selected number and suit setting in the page's link fragment.

Collect eight sequences

A full descending sequence containing different suits stays on the tableau. Win by completing eight same-suit King-to-Ace sequences. A qualifying face-up run is removed automatically. Numbered Spider uses 104 cards arranged in ten columns with a stock pile.

Keep movable groups together

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. Undo can restore the position before a stock deal while the snapshot is available. Five stock deals are available at the beginning of a numbered game.

Explore one layout

The following details apply here. Replay resets the current number to its original shuffle. 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.

A reproducible deal is not a proof

A few details help explain this feature. Some choices can make a position harder even when another line might succeed. Winning Deals provides a separate collection with verified legal solutions. Numbered shuffles are not advertised as guaranteed winnable. The Hint button reports legal options rather than solving the whole game.

Save your numbered game

Keep these points in mind. My Statistics lists numbered starts and wins separately from ordinary Spider games. With saving enabled, Numbered Deals keeps a current game for each suit setting in this browser. A matching saved game resumes when you revisit its number.
