Five Crowns

Ages 8 and up can enjoy this game. It can have 1 to 7 players and takes about 45 minutes to play. Five Crowns is an acclaimed rummy - style card game with a unique double deck. This deck includes five suits: spades, clubs, hearts, diamonds, and stars. The special deck makes it a breeze to arrange your hand into books and runs. There's a rotating wild card that keeps the excitement high! The game starts with 3 - card hands where 3s are wild. Then, each round adds a card, and that number becomes the wild card until Kings go wild. Be the first to make the right combinations and go out. Watch as other players rush to cut their losses. It's a universally loved game that's easy to play anywhere, and you'll keep coming back for more.

How to play: First, decide on the number of players (1 - 7). Each player gets cards according to the round. In the first round, players get 3 cards, and 3s are wild. As the rounds progress, the number of cards and the wild - card number increase. Try to arrange your cards into books (same number different suits) and runs (consecutive numbers in the same suit). The goal is to be the first to get rid of all your cards. Tips: Keep an eye on the wild card as it changes each round. This can help you plan your combinations better. When others are about to go out, quickly try to form your own combinations to cut your losses. Maintenance: Keep the cards in a dry place to prevent them from warping. If the cards get dirty, you can gently wipe them with a dry cloth. Don't bend or fold the cards too roughly to make sure they last a long time.
