      If they have the rank, then they will give it to you. If not, you will have to go fish - click on the draw pile to collect a card.

      The game is over when either one person runs out of cards or the stock pile is depleted. The person with the most sets wins the game.

Tips & Warnings

  • Wait to ask for cards until you are close to getting a set. By asking for cards you are letting your opponent know what you need. Don't let them know until you are really close to completing a set.

  • Some versions may require you to download a plugin to play. Read any download notices carefully before you agree to have anything installed on your computer.
