Where are the power cards! A 7 should skip a player, joker is pick up 4 cards, a 2 makes the other player pick up 2 cards and a Jack reverses the direction of play or skips a player if there are only 2 people playing.

I remember when I was 11. Me and my friends would go into the basement and use this game to gamble the little allowance that we had. It was a blast.

in the uk we play it different and its called switch it the same concept but you deal 7 cards no matter how many players and a 2 makes the person to next to you left or right puck up 2 cards and a 7 lets you play the rest of your suit 8 makes the person miss a tern a ace(has to be the same suit)lets you change the suit a black jack switches the direction for ether left to right or right to left and a black queen makes everyone switch hands.personally i prefer switch because it has more to it but thats just me hope this helps and ps its better with 4 or five people because you can screw up there strategy.

Do you keep drawing from the deck until you can play a card?

[noelleboehm]

Thank you. I wanted to learn how to play Crazy Eights.

[marlainavela]

What if you have 3 heart cards (with the deck asking for hearts), could you place them all down at the same time ?

[jefftoe]

Thanks. I used to play "draw until you can play another card." that may be wrong though.... Where did you get that hat? like the plaid
