🃏 How to Play Crazy 8s
Quick, fun, and full of twists—great for 2 to 7 players

👥 Players: Best with 2 to 4

📦 What You Need:

• One standard deck of cards

1. Deal the Cards

• 2–4 players: Deal 5 cards each
• 5–7 players: Deal 7 cards each
• Place the rest face down as the draw pile
• Flip one card face up to start the discard pile

2. Taking Turns

• Play goes clockwise
• On your turn, play a card that matches the rank or suit of the top discard card
  Example: If it’s a 7♥, play any 7 or any ♥

3. Wild Card Alert: 8s

• Play an 8 at any time
• When you play an 8, choose the suit for the next turn

4. No Match?

• Draw cards one at a time until you can play
• If the draw pile runs out and you still can’t play, skip your turn

🎉 Win the Game:
First player to get rid of all their cards wins

💡 Tip: The 8s are wild—use them wisely!
