ALL ONE COLOR: The cards are all the same color. EXAMPLE:
Phase 8 requires seven cards of one color, which could be
seven red cards or seven green cards, etc. The cards do not
need to be in numerical order.
WILD CARDS: A “Wild” card may be used in place of a number
card, or may be used as any color, in order to complete a Phase.
EXAMPLES: A player wants to make a run of four, but only has
cards “3,” “4,” and “6.” The player uses a “Wild” card as a “5” to
complete the run. Or, a player has 6 green cards, and uses a
“Wild” card as a green card, to complete Phase 8.
• More than one “Wild” card may be used in completing a
Phase. Players can use as many “Wild” cards as they want as
long as they use one (1) natural card.
• Once a “Wild” card has been played in a Phase, it cannot be
replaced by the intended card and used elsewhere, but must
remain as that card until the hand is over.
• If the dealer starts the discard pile with a “Wild” card, the card
may be picked up by the first player.
SKIP CARDS: Skip cards have only one purpose: to cause
another player to lose a turn. To use, simply discard the “Skip”
card on your turn, then choose the player who will lose a turn.
• When you draw a “Skip” card, you may discard it immediately
or save it for a later turn.
• A “Skip” card may never be used in making Phase 8, or any
other Phase.
• A “Skip” card may never be picked up from the discard pile.
• Only one “Skip” card against each player per “round” may be
used.
• When someone is skipped, a “round” is once around the table.
• If the dealer starts the discard pile with a “Skip” card, the first
player’s first turn is automatically skipped.
MAKING A PHASE: If, during your turn, you are able to make a
Phase with the cards in your hand, lay the Phase down, face-up
on the table before discarding. For example, you are trying to
make Phase 1. You have 3 “5s” and 2 “7s” and you draw another
“7.” You now have 2 sets of 3, and you may lay them down. In
the next hand, you will be working on Phase 2.
• You must have the whole Phase in hand before laying it down.
•
You may lay down more than the minimum requirements of a
Phase, but only if the additional cards can be directly added to
the cards already in the Phase.
EXAMPLES: You lay down 3 “5s” and 3 “7s” to make Phase 1.
You have two more “5s” in hand and can immediately lay them
down with the 3 ”5s,” all in the same turn. Another player making
Phase 1 lays down 3 “6s” and 3 “8s.”
