Wild Card

WILD CARD-

Instructions:

Key Information/Resources: This game requires all 52 cards, as well as Jokers 

Wild Cards- Wildcards are Jokers and the number that matches the round.  (If on round 3, then 3 is wild). Wild cards are free cards that have no boundaries as far as use. Can be used to complete a run or kind.

Kind: Matching number. For example, three of a kind could be three fours. 

Run: Run is 3 or more cards in numeric order and matching suit. For example, 1, 2, 3, and 4 of hearts.

This is a two-player game. The objective of the game is to take turns drawing cards attempting to make matches in the form of "Kinds" and "Runs." Wildcards can take the form of any card in order to complete a run or kind. Once a player goes out, the opposing player has the chance to lay out as many combos as they can. Any remaining cards will be added up and counted towards their score. The lowest score wins. Rounds are 3-13.  13 is not a hard cap. The game can be ended earlier if felt fitting.

Steps:

(Shuffle Deck)

1. Choose someone to deal with first. (players will alternate with rounds)

2. First round dealer will deal three cards each 

3. Evaluate hand for matches, if no moves draw a card. It is now the next player's turn. (keep repeating this process until a player makes enough matches to go "out")  

4. When going "out" lay your matches. One of your cards must be sent to the discard pile facing up.

5. The opposing player is then forced to lay any matches (if any) they also have the ability to draw a card from the deck or discard the pile in order to aid their efforts

6. They will then discard one of their cards. Any remaining cards will be counted against them (except for jokers or wild cards) Point value corresponds with the card's numeric value. Jack-11 Queen- 12 King-13. Remember lowest score wins

The round is over

7. next round four cards will be dealt. Each round an additional card will be dealt all the way to 13. Once 13 is over, the game is completed. The lowest total score wins.
