Five Crowns Game

Five Crowns is a fast paced, rummy style game played in eleven rounds. The wild card changes with every hand. You may be winning, but beware, “The game isn’t over ‘til the kings go wild!” 2-7 players.

Five Crowns is rummy with a five-suited deck and a twist. The set collection aspect of rummy is basically the same, with groups of three cards in either runs or denominations making a valid meld. The twist is that in each hand the number of cards required to create a meld increases, from three cards in the first hand to thirteen in the last. The game, therefore, consists of eleven hands.
