Five Crowns is a card game for the whole family. It has original game play, but uses skills that you have obtained from playing your old favorites like hearts, spades and rummy. Because Five Crowns has five Royal Families - the Stars, the Clubs, the Hearts, the Spades and the Diamonds - yes, five suits in the old usage, it allows a more equal chance of making a book or a run, effectively giving each player more possibilities to readjust their hand so as to go out. Good players are able to take advantage of this and win more than an average number of games. The play starts with three cards and 3s are wild; next hand has four cards and 4s are wild....working up to the last hand when Kings are wild. Each of the royal families is portrayed in original art and has its own colors. The Renaissance designs result in cards that are beautiful to hold in your hand and give a "collector" feel to the game. Five Crowns is a fast paced, ingenious new game in eleven rounds. You may be winning, but before coveting the winner's crown, beware..."THE GAME ISN'T OVER 'TIL THE KINGS GO WILD!" For 2 to 7 players. Ages 8 to adult.

It's a very fun and intertaining game. The cards have great color and are easy to read. The coating is slick so I bought a card shuffler because there are so many cards to shuffle. Now the game goes even faster and no bend cards FUN! Also helps the brain to remember how to add. :)

A great fun card game for all ages! It is a great crowd pleaser! It easy to learn and fun to out smart your opponents by going out early. I enjoy playing with my grandkids and with my friends at Bingo before and at intermission. I recently bought 3 more for my fellow Bingo players because they love the games so much!

This game is fun to play and fits into our Friday night family game night as we have seven adults that enjoy gaming together. We needed a new game to mix things up a little and after a relatively short learning time we all enjoyed the game and plan to play it often. It takes a while to get through the eleven rounds but that isn't a problem for us. Would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys card games.
