Instructions

Play Card Games With Yahoo Games

1. Visit the Yahoo home page to get started (see Resources below).

2. Click on the 'Games' link to be taken to Yahoo Games.

3. Click on the 'Card' button from the Yahoo Games navigation bar.

4. Click 'View All' to see all 30+ games there are from which to choose.

5. Access the card game you want to play by clicking one of the options next to the game's title. There will be 1, 2 or 3 options from which to choose.

6. Click on the 'Download' button to view your downloading options. You can either download a free trial, which will give you immediate access to the game you've chosen but with limited features, or you can purchase it outright. (A credit card will be required for purchase.)

7. Choose the 'Web Version' button to play the Web game immediately. You will still have the options to download the trial version or to purchase immediately, but you will not have to download anything to your computer to play. The web version of the game will allow you to play first and pay later.

8. Select the 'Skill' button to play against other competitors. This option will bring you to a screen that puts you in the place of the player or contestant. Some of the games in this category are 'American Idol' or 'Deal or No Deal.'
