Rules for Crazy Eigths


The game


The top card is turned over to reveal it. It is played clockwise. The player to move must place a card on top of the face up card. It must be the same as the suit (Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs, Spades) or the same value as the card on top of the pile. If the player cannot put a card on it, he must take a card from the pot. If he takes a card from the pot and it can be placed, he may put it down immediately.

End of the game


When a player has only 1 card left he must knock on the table or say 'Last card'. If he forgets this and lays down his last card, he must take an extra card from the pot. It is not allowed to end with a plague card. The player who gets rid of his cards first is the winner. The other players count the values ​​of the cards in their hand.

  • 2 - The next player must draw 2 cards, unless he/she throws a joker or a 2.
  • Jack - The player who tosses the jack may indicate which suit to continue playing
  • 7 sticks - After a 7, the same player may place another adjacent card
  • 8 wait - The next player is skipped and the player after that continues to play
  • King Turn - The game turns and continues counterclockwise until someone else throws another king
