Five Crowns (EN) - card game

Product detailed description

Five Crowns is a rummy-style card game using two 58-card decks in five suits – stars, hearts, clubs, spades and diamonds – plus six jokers. The game is played over eleven hands, with the hand size growing from three cards in the first round up to thirteen in the last.

How to play: On each turn, players draw a card from the draw pile or the discard pile, then discard one card. The goal is to arrange your entire hand into runs (consecutive cards of the same suit) or books (cards of the same rank across different suits). The twist is that the wild card changes every round – threes are wild in the first hand, fours in the second, and so on up to kings in the final hand. The rules stay the same, but every round plays out differently. A hand ends once a player can lay down their entire hand. The player with the lowest score after eleven hands wins.

The game has no text printed on the cards, making it playable across languages. Rules are provided in English.

Box contents: 116 cards (5 suits, 3 through King, 6 jokers), rulebook.
