The goal for each player is to play out their hand by creating sets or runs. A set or run must contain at least three cards. If it’s your final turn after a player has gone out, then you may consider discarding a wild card or joker. You have to decide whether it is more important to reduce the number of points assigned to you, at the risk of helping another player lay out all of their cards. This may depend on the score differential between yourself and the current winning player, or player(s) closest to you if you are currently winning. To begin, take the top card from the draw pile and decide which of the 11 piles you want to play it in. After adding it, discard one card from that pile. Discarded cards are not allowed to be used again. How to play Five Crowns Card game in simple steps. Players play 11 hands/rounds. In each round, players attempt to play all their cards by making card combinations. Points are awarded to players with cards in hand at the end of each round. After 11 rounds, the player with the lowest score wins. Once one player goes all out (which means they have played all their cards, minus the one they need to discard), all other players will only have one more turn before the end of the round. After that, any cards not discarded will be added to your total.

Deal: Shuffle all cards together and deal 11 piles: 3 cards in the first pile, 4 in the second, 5 in the third and so on until you have 13 cards in the eleventh pile. Arrange each of the piles faceup in a way that you can see all of the cards. The remaining cards create your draw pile. Sets: Sets (or books) are three or more cards of the same value, no matter which suit. Cards in a set can be replaced by wild cards or jokers. All things being equal, it is better to complete your books or runs using lower value cards. This way you score fewer points if you do not successfully play out your hand. This said, I would not sacrifice a good start (e.g., two kings) to pursue this strategy; instead, if it’s the first hand and you have two pairs (e.g., kings and fours) after drawing your card for the turn, then I would toss a king into the discard pile. For example, if you’re waiting for one of two cards for a run and you see the player across from dumping a bunch of them, it may be time to switch strategy.Once someone goes down, all other players get one more turn to lower their hand count and they lay down their cards. Each round, the number of cards dealt increases by one. In the second round deal 4 cards, in the third round deal 5 cards and so on until the last round when each player is dealt 13 cards.

If you’re getting down to the end or someone has gone out, don’t just throw any face card down to lower your count. Runs: A run is a sequence of three or more cards (e.g., 3-5) containing the same suit (i.e, cannot be a mix of two different suits). Any card in the sequence can be replaced by a wild card or joker.
