Skip-Bo

Be the first to get rid of your cards

The Skip-Bo card game, from the creators of the popular game Uno, will put your strategic thinking to the test. Each player receives a deck of cards and their goal is to be the first to get rid of it. In each round, players draw cards until they have five in their hand. Four piles of cards are then placed in the centre of the table in ascending order from 1 to 12. Cards can be played from a player's hand, from the top of their discard pile, or from their own stock pile. A joker can be used for a missing number. A player's turn ends when they can no longer play or do not want to. However, they must discard one card from their hand to their discard pile. The winner is the first person to get rid of all their cards. The cards are also suitable for colour-blind players, as they contain a symbol that allows them to be distinguished.
