Information about Spite and Malice Online
The fun competitive patience game Spite and Malice, but in a digital form! Here you can play the game completely free without downloading. This is an HTML5 game developed by Zygomatic that supports all modern browsers and devices.
- The object of the game is to be the first player to transfer all the cards from your personal ‘play pile’ on the left to the collective center piles.
- To begin, slap down an Ace to start the first center pile.
- Moving clockwise, build up each center pile by placing the next card in ascending order up to the Queen. You can grab a card from your hand, your play pile, or peek at the tops of the discard piles.
- When it’s your turn, you can also transfer a card from your hand onto one of the discard piles, ending your turn.
- The king is wild – he can stand in for any other card you please. So use him wisely.
- The first person to clear their play pile and build the center piles up wins.
