yes it is a solitaire type of game for 4 players. 11 cards are dealt face down to each player(these are the cards they need to get rid of to win game)and then turn the top card face up. then another pile of 5 cards for a playing hand that they use to play the game. you have a central drawing pile and 4 playing spots. cards are played in one of the spots starting from Ace going up to Queen like solitaire. kings are wild. you can use the 5 cards in your hand or the top card of your 11 card pile to play. then you can play another card and continue untill your 11 card pile is gone or you can no longer play a card in order. if you can no longer play discard one card from your playing hand face up and you draw cards until you have 5 cards again in your playing hand then the next player takes thier turn continuing to place cards in one of the 4 play spots starting where you left off.

Wow, I have not heard of Spite and Malice in so long. I used to play as a kid. If anyone has ever played Skip-Bo then they know how to play Spite and Malice. It is basically the same game.

A member of Mattel's popular family of Uno card games, Skip-Bo resembles speed (or spit) in the same way that Uno takes after crazy eights. Out of a 162-card deck, two to six players are each dealt 20-card "stockpiles"; the first one to deplete their pile wins. Competing either alone or in teams, players draw from a central pile and stack their cards sequentially onto one of four "build" piles (for example, an eight onto a seven, a three onto a two), using plentiful Skip-Bo wild cards to break up static situations. Deceptively simple and ingeniously designed, this classic game offers plenty of strategizing opportunities, or it can just make a nice backdrop to socializing and munching on potato chips. "Skip-Bo" is the commercial version of the traditional game known as "Spite and Malice". Hope this helps!

Yes, I just recently learned how to play it. It's very fun. It involves two players.
You can find the rules for it in:
