### 3/5 — Win string reset to 0.

*2026-07-15, version 7.4.5*

Fun solitaire game. Unfortunately, after traveling west over the international date line, my string of over 400 consecutive days was reset to 0. Why wasn't the FREEZE feature applied?

### 2/5 — Notifications

*2026-07-01, version 7.4.5*

Lots of notification requests, annoying.

### 2/5 — Change to event puzzles

*2026-06-12, version 7.4.5*

You can no longer get double pieces, making these a boring grind. Uninstalling. Was the only arcade game I actually liked.

### 4/5 — event thing in corner

*2026-04-03, version 7.4.5*

pretty good app but i’m only writing this review because of the ugly glowing event puzzle piece that’s now permanently in the corner of the screen. i don’t want to do the events, and even if i did, i would like to be able to make that go away because for whatever reason it’s really annoying me

### 4/5 — Helps my anxiety

*2026-03-13, version 7.4.5*

I love having this game. I play it when I have anxiety to calm me. I just get really annoyed with the puzzles. The puzzle activity is my favorite, but I’m so tired of the Christmas puzzles. It’s already March, we’ve had Christmas puzzles every month. They are fine in December. Keep them there.

### 4/5 — Fun

*2026-02-19, version 7.4.5*

Easy to play, varied games

### 4/5 — Sometimes Glitchy

*2026-02-18, version 7.4.5*

I love this game. But sometimes when I go to move a card with a tap, it acts as if I’m hitting the ‘undo’ button. This is hurtful towards my score because it deducts points AND adds unnecessary moves to my move count.

### 4/5 — Separate Leaderboards?

*2026-01-19, version 7.4.5*

I love the game.  It’s addictive and can be easy or challenging depending on how many suits you want.  I love the addition of Spiderette but really dislike that it shares the same leaderboard as the regular game.  Spiderette is so easy to get higher scores in and wipes my regular game best scores out.  I would like to compete against my overall high scores for the regular game but they are gone now…

### 2/5 — Fine when it works

*2026-01-14, version 7.4.5*

This game is installed on 3 of my devices and frequently freezes up at various stages. For example looking at the objectives or starting a game. I keep closing and relaunching and it still freezes.

### 5/5 — Nice simple game (but can’t figure out the scoring!)

*2025-12-13, version 7.4.5*

What’s to say? It’s a simple game if you want; with harder modes if you want.

For the life of me I can’t figure out the scoring formula. Copilot AI thought it had it figured out after I provided six scores with time and moved, but then when I provided four additional scores with time and moves, its solution no longer worked. 😂

Anyway, it’s a nice mindless diversion that still makes your mind work (if that makes sense) 🫠

### 2/5 — Makes me dumber

*2025-11-08, version 7.4.5*

When I first downloaded this game a few years ago, it was great. I used it on the easy one suit deck and would win a lot of games. Since about a year ago, even on the same setting, it’s constantly hit replay to try to win, on the simplest setting. I mainly use the game to slow down my mind before bed, was a little satisfying to go to sleep after winning a simple card game. It’s absolutely irritating to play this game anymore. Sorry guys, but something changed and so will I.

### 4/5 — Challenging game

*2025-10-18, version 7.4.5*

Good for your brain !

### 5/5 — Vic

*2025-10-11, version 7.4.5*

What's going on?  Just fried to open The Spider game to do my daily game and nothing comes up.  It's a great way to pass the time when we travel, or it was?
It will not load, tough to play?!

### 4/5 — Love it.

*2025-10-08, version 7.4.5*

Love it.

### 5/5 — .

*2025-09-27, version 7.4.5*

When ever  I am bored I will always play spider. It always relieves me from my stress

### 4/5 — Eww, spiders.

*2025-08-17*

The game is great, no notes on the experience once the app is opened. However, I hate spiders and would love the option to use a different app icon. I currently have the app hidden because I don’t want a black widow sitting on my Home Screen constantly. Because of this, I likely play the game less than I would if it were more visible. There’re options to customize graphics within the app, please provide an option to customize the icon as well

### 5/5 — Free cell

*2025-08-16, version 7.4.5*

Will you one day have Free Cell on Arcade?

### 1/5 — I like the game but ….

*2026-08-03, version 7.4.5*

Game frozen after closed the app and opened can’t select anything or play deleted multiple times and reinstalled still same issue

### 1/5 — Can’t start a new game

*2026-07-26, version 7.4.5*

Can’t start a new game. Can only start a new game if I completely run out of moves on the game I’m currently playing.

### 1/5 — Game is broken.

*2026-05-23, version 7.4.5*

The game is currently behaving oddly. 
When you move a card of one colour onto a different coloured card you immediately lose the ability to move any cards of the deal before. 
This makes the game unplayable.

### 1/5 — A complete fix

*2025-06-07, version 7.4.5*

Ever played this title and you just keep thinking, 'if only that one number would drop'. Well, keep wishing, because it won't.

I have now played hhndres of hours of this game and I've been keeping a log of my results. The cards you need will always be artificially held back.

This is not a random drop, or a game of chance.

This game is fixed.

### 1/5 — Too many interruptions

*2024-10-05, version 7.1.0*

I just want to play Spider solitaire without other games and images that cannot be disabled!

### 1/5 — Update made it too much

*2024-05-09*

This was the perfect game. The “win animation collection” was silly, but harmless. With this update, you get too much of a good thing, and it’s … too much. Not fun anymore; feels like a grind. I agree with the reviewer who said it encourages too much play. 

More than that, in the event challenges if you don’t solve the game correctly and want to try again, the challenge changes. It used to be interesting to “practice” - to see how you could cleverly make a move to succeed. Now, if you don’t win after two attempts, you fail and are given a different challenge and card layout to continue. That’s not fun, especially when playing on the multiple suit levels. Why not let the player choose when to get a new deal? It worked before!

I would 100% roll back to the previous version if I could. It was perfect.

### 1/5 — Update Made It Too Complex

*2024-05-07*

Been playing this daily for over a year now. Since the last update I have completely lost interest. Progression used to be simple and had a fun badge/reward. Now there is way more to navigate and you have to GRIND to get similar rewards/badges. Extremely disappointed in what used to be a well polished, fun, and straightforward game. 

Note - I appreciate that the daily challenge format hasn’t changed. Please don’t change that too, Mobilityware!!

### 1/5 — Update encourages too much play

*2024-05-03, version 7.1.0*

I loved collecting the weekly challenges in the prior updates. Playing a few games a day would give me just enough wins to push over the finish line by the time they reset every 7 days. The new scheme, where the event tracks have the same number of challenges but must be competed in 3 days is too many. Deleing this, so I don’t play too much.

### 1/5 — 需要更好的本地化

*2024-03-07, version 6.5.1*

翻译太差，需要人工翻译

### 1/5 — Bug December 2023 Additional draws are no longer shuffled

*2023-12-03, version 6.5.1*

Started a couple days ago. 

The initial columns are shuffled, but the additional draws are sorted  in order by value and suit, A to King, hearts to clubs. iPad Pro, latest updates.

This bug makes the game trivial to win.

### 5/5 — Good Game

*2026-04-24, version 7.4.5*
