Crazier Eights (2014)

About this game

A shedding card game. Players take turns drawing a card, discarding a card, and playing a card for an effect. The first player with zero cards wins. Unlike the original Crazy Eights game, every card can have a unique effect on the game. The characters and card effects incorporate fantasy elements, such as a Dragon card and a Death card (which destroys characters and castles).

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
