Five Crowns is a fast-paced ingenious rummy - like card a game. Its double deck contains 5 suits (the stars are new), but it has no aces or twos. This unique deck gives you many more options for arranging your hand into sets and sequences. The challenge is to see them make the right combinations, be the first to go out; then watch the others scramble as they get one last chance to cut their losses.
Five Crowns, with its beautiful, colorful cards, is easy to learn. Start with 3 cards -- and 3s are wild. The next hand has 4 cards and 4s are wild... and so on. You'll need luck and skill throughout the game because even in the last hand a worthy opponent can come from behind and win. Remember, "the game isn't over 'til the Kings go wild!" For up to 2-7 players.

I love this game -- it is great to toss it in my pocketbook or tote bag and take with us on a trip. It doesn't take up much space, and can entertain us for quite a long period of time. We have played this with my step-son since he was 6 -- for the later rounds it is a little challenging for him to hold all the cards and keep track of what he has, but we just give him plenty of time for his turn and he is able to hold his own against the adults. The rules are simple enough that you can teach the game in just a few minutes -- also because the rounds gradually increase in card number and complexity of options, you get to start out very basic which also helps any noobs.
We love the sub-title that the game is not over until the 'Kings go wild' ... it is really true! Even if you are 100 points behind, in the last round if you get lucky and your opponent do not, you could still win. I have bought this for gifts and it is always enjoyed. |
| A game night favorite | 2010-07-10 | 5 / 5 |

| This game comes out almost every game night with family and friends. A fun game for all ages. |

| Was looking for a fun two person game that could also be played with a group. We needed something simple to fill time while traveling. We were tired of the card games we already had. Spotted this one and read the reviews and decided it was worth a try. This game is indeed tons of fun. It is fun with two people or more. I think kids could play it as well, with partners for the younger ones. It is very random so it is hard to even try to predict who will win! Easy to master the few rules and the game strategy is different for 2 players than for 4 which makes it more interesting. |

| I give this game 2 out of 5 stars. While it could be fun under certain circumstances, there is no skill involved, whatsoever. If you are OK with playing a game for an hour to see who is the luckiest among you, this is the game for you. If instead you are looking for an easy game that still provides some strategic choices... look elsewhere. |

| I first played Five Crowns at a friend's house a month or so ago. I've since bought about 6 games of it for gifts. Adults enjoy this gin rummy type game and it would be great with families. We've had 2-10 people play (use two sets for 8 or more players). It holds your interest and provides enough competition to keep it fun. |
