It’s even sluggish on the latest iPad Pro with the M4 chip! Please update Solitaire and compile it against the latest iOS libraries! ### 2/5 — I paid but still get served ads *2023-06-28, version 1.7.29* I paid for this game to remove advertisements. But since the last update I’m being served ads between games. How is that OK?? ### 2/5 — Ads every new game *2023-06-28, version 1.7.29* I paid for the app to avoid ads, but recently I’ve been getting a popup ad for a different app, which I have to tap closed, every time I start a new game. So keep that in mind if you’re thinking about paying for the app. ### 2/5 — Every time you update you add bugs. *2023-03-24, version 1.7.26* It used to be a five star game but every time it updates it just adds more crap. ### 4/5 — Did not get achievement *2022-05-20, version 1.7.10* I love that you added the 3 suit game option. But when I finally beat the game, it failed to give me the achievement. It still shows locked. But I am still happy to have that new option. ### 5/5 — Titles earned for winning games and levels. *2021-09-07* Love the challenge and I always play the 10 deck game. Would like to see titles of accomplishments awarded for mastering the next level. No big deal but it’s nice to see if you have moved up the leader board w every win. Maybe double the points if you get two in a row wins. Something along those lines. Ok. Thanks for making such a time wasting, relaxing game! ### 3/5 — Deals...not seemingly random *2021-09-03* For relaxation, I play fast one-deck Spider. ...been playing a long time. Right or wrong, I’ve come to the conclusion that there’s a pattern to shuffles...that I can almost predict cards that will be uncovered. ...I can fairly quickly predict a single card...that will either, not show up until the last deal or not show up at all during that particular game. ...and while I can’t predict “when” a single or double aces will be dealt to the right side columns, I simply know it’ll happen. Great game...but if you play it often, you’ll recognize repetition. …moved a Queen, uncovering another Queen. Moved that one, uncovering a 6. …moved that…uncovering another 6. …this is how it goes. …a fresh new-game deal? …3 same-cards & 2 other same-cards. …not unusual. I sometimes restart 3-4 times before receiving a deal I think looks…feels…both random and not an auto-loss. ### 4/5 — Almost perfect *2021-08-23* I have an iPad and love this game. But after a recent update it developed an issue…cards in the 2 rightmost columns, when the stack gets long don’t want to select. This applies to a tap for the cards to move to the default location and for drag and drop motion. It has not only slowed me down, but caused me to end a couple of games early. I reported it so I hope it gets fixed soon. Love this addictive game! ### 5/5 — Best on a plane *2021-08-13, version 1.7.1* This game is a lifesaver on an airplane. Most games take 10 to 12 minutes, so one can space out the time of a flight by a number of games. Chicago to New York: figure 8 games and you’re there. ### 5/5 — Thanks for the Update! *2021-08-11, version 1.7.1* I still play this all the time, it’s still just a perfect, distilled Spider Solitaire game with no fuss and no hang ups. Was pleasantly surprised to get an update after all this time too, complete with a new win animation, decks and tabletops. Appreciate the ongoing support! ### 4/5 — It changed appearance *2021-08-11, version 1.7.1* When it changed appearance it changed how the cards function in the corners. When I tap on the last card in a row in the corner of an iPad it will not move. I now have to tap somewhere around that card to hopefully get it to move. That was not happening previously. ### 5/5 — Spider Solitaire *2021-08-10, version 1.7.1* Very addicting. Keep going back to it. Restarts give opportunity to win the same game.Although luck is in the draw of the cards good strategy can assist in winning. ### 5/5 — Please Go Back *2021-08-10, version 1.7.1* … to being able to undo a move without having to click the center button. ### 5/5 — SPIDER *2021-08-08* I Love the Game & play it after reading to go to sleep. Sometimes I believe it not random shuffles as it is weird how certain cards appear in highly unusual ways! So, I just shuffle ahead a couple times & continue. ### 3/5 — Great app until recent update *2021-08-06, version 1.7.1* After update can’t tap bottom card if the stack is full. Pretty much unusable at this point ### 4/5 — Before you buy… *2021-08-05* If you’ve been playing the ad-supported version, READ THIS before buying the ad-free version. I played the free version for a couple of years before buying the game. I played almost every day and got pretty good - if a deal was winnable, I could regularly solve it in under three minutes. Since purchasing the game and still playing daily, now my times average about 3:30. THEY CHANGED THE ALGORITHM, making the game much more difficult. I have far more deals that aren’t solvable, and as mentioned, my average time to complete has gone up by almost 50%!! That stings a bit, particularly when my whole reason for playing is to measure my daily capacity to quickly solve problems, etc. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2023-06-28, version 1.7.29* Paid for the ad free version but now it’s started showing ads on starting a new game ### 1/5 — Violated my trust by injecting Ads in the ad free app *2023-06-28, version 1.7.29* I’ve had this ap ad-free for years, now every time I try to start a game a new pop up interrupts the game promoting items to download. How lame and clearly a violation of my trust. I don’t want your new games, I don’t want to see your advertisements. I did not invite you to solicit for additional sales. If it doesn’t stop I will delete this game. I don’t have to play. ### 1/5 — Ads *2021-12-27, version 1.7.2* Payed for this app. No adverts, until now. Same happened with my previous Spider app Reason I payed was no ads. ### 1/5 — It takes a Brainium to screw it up *2021-08-08* This is what’s sad when an old game suddenly has an update and… Well you liked the way it was and now you cannot go back. The new layout uses quieter sounds which is bad for those who liked to crank it to max. The layout is lower in portrait mode, ruining a nice background image. And the wors is the stupid large logo that you cant ignore pushing you t o more games. Just done for flair. The end game animations are ok, but the game was fine before, it just shows you never own what you think you own. Best to just program the game yourself. Five star game is now 1 star ### 1/5 — constant popups to login to game center. *2021-04-07, version 1.6.12* ill just stay away from branium software. ### 1/5 — Nothing happened when I hit a billion points, so I stopped playing. *2019-06-06, version 1.6.12* Nothing happened when I hit a million points, so I kept going. Nothing happened when I hit a billion points, so I stopped playing. According to the stats, I have played for 433 hours or ~18 days of my life without sleeping. For that level of commitment, I’d expect the devs to buy me a sandwich or show me a puppy covered in donuts or something. But nope, the score counter just grew an extra digit while I lost the will to live. ### 1/5 — iPhone User *2018-05-15* I am very disappointed in this game. I have been a dedicated Spiderette 1 player for four years, even buying the ad-free version. Recently their system must have been hacked because players appear out of nowhere on the Leaderboard. I was player 27, and was moving up. Today I’m player 28 again. This is the second time in a month or so this has happened. How can a player appear out of nowhere with a score of 1.18 billion points? I tried to contact the developers but after three ignored requests for a password reset was unable to reach them. It’s a crooked game. **Developer response:** Hi Domo- It sounds like you tried to login to our customer support platform. There's actually no way for players to login, it's only for our team. Just email us at support@BrainiumStudios, or by using the Brainium button that appears when you tap Spider's background. ### 1/5 — Used to love it *2016-02-08, version 1.4.1* Used to love this game and played it all the time but since the last update the cards have got really small. Looking around for another version of the game now ### 1/5 — Cards too small. *2016-02-07, version 1.4.1* The cards have just become much smaller and I don't know how to return them to normal size. Very annoying. ### 1/5 — Spider solitaire update *2016-02-05, version 1.4.1* WE DO NOT LIKE THE NEW SMALL FORMAT! Please return it back to its old large size!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hey 😬 *2025-06-19* 2025 I hope you’re doing fine! Please let us know that you’re still with us. I, for one, love your game and I’m still playing it every single day. I don’t know what I would do without it. Thank you so much 💕🌷 ### 5/5 — Love this game!! *2025-02-28, version 1.7.29* Colourful and addictive. ### 5/5 — Question *2024-12-27, version 1.7.29* December 2024, Hi, I have a question. My question is, would I lose any points if I hit the “Undo” button? If not, then how many times would I be allowed to undo? Thank you. ### 5/5 — Fantastic. Soothing sounds. *2022-02-13, version 1.7.2* Love this game. Feature request: statistic showing number of completed stacks. That would provide more opportunities for positive feedback even on games we don't win. ### 5/5 — Spider *2022-02-03, version 1.7.2* I love this game And since I paid for no adverts it’s fantastic Addictive I replay and replay. Love it ### 5/5 — Simple and addicting, a stress reliever. Enjoy replaying to make the win work- *2021-12-22, version 1.7.2* Have wasted so many hours... ### 5/5 — Excellent *2021-12-18, version 1.7.2* Ad-free and easy game play. The best version for it there. ### 5/5 — Great *2021-12-06, version 1.7.2* Play it most days ### 5/5 — Great game *2021-10-17, version 1.7.2* Good for concentration. Also helps relaxation ### 5/5 — Shuffle *2021-09-19, version 1.7.2* Have a button to shuffle the cards --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
