You and the computer start with five cards. Play a card that matches the top card by suit or number. An eight can be played at any time and lets you choose the next suit. If you cannot play, draw until you can. The first player with no cards wins. If the stock runs out, the player with fewer cards wins.

How to play
  1. Tap a glowing card that matches the top card.
  2. Eights are wild: play one and choose a suit.
  3. Nothing to play? Tap the stock to draw.
Tips and tricks

A few ideas that make Crazy Eights easier and more fun:

  • Save eights for when you are stuck, or for your last card.
  • Change the suit to the one you hold most, so you can play several in a row.
  • Play cards from suits you hold few of first, and keep your long suit for later.
About Crazy Eights

Play Crazy Eights online

Crazy Eights is a family card game and a relative of many shedding games. Biuno uses one deck, five cards each and no special cards except the eights.

Why it works

You track the suits you hold, decide when to save a wild card and plan ahead. The task uses planning and probabilistic thinking.

These are the skills used during play; improvement outside the game is not established.
