How To Play Five Crowns Card Game

[@pebre79]

I finally get the rules. I was playing all wrong. Thanks for posting

[@nickvandam1214]

I thrifted this and Quidler for 1.50 each. Five crowns is good but goes for a bit too long 2 player. Quidler uses a similar system but is much faster and for us more fun. If you find either for cheap they are good games to pick up. Five Crowns is OK, but Quidler is the best inexpensive word game we've found.

Great explaining!

[@ZackValentine]

John and Sue who we met in Mallorca, thanks again for the game - we’ve bought it!

[@craigt611]

Best explanation I've seen so far

[@robertclark4929]

Update...We really like it after playing more. Wife loves it. I bought mine on Ebay for 7.95 free shipping. Lady seller was in Canada. Sadly it cost her 18.00 to ship to me in the states. She was ok with that and a nice person to deal with.

[@rhondafountain648]

Wow, alot for her to pay to ship. I got mine at my local Walgreens for $1.49...grabbed 5 total & gave as gifts

[@georgeatalla7820]

Thank you! Just what we needed.

This is a family favorite. Good review, thanks.

[@bryana.lopezflete5350]

So wait a minute to get a run it has to be the same suit right?

[@robertclark4929]

I have this and its "ok". Not real thrilled with it. Starts out kinda boring until you get into the larger hands.

[@georgeloveday9674]

Well done. Thank you.

[@seannarenee9116]

I love this game, but have a question. When you’re going out, are you allowed to have a book of wilds? For example, if you’re in the first round and have two 3’s and one joker can you go out? I was told that you have to have at least one non-wild card in a book/run in order to go out.

[@gizclark]

Great review. Very clear tks

[@rhondafountain648]

Picked this game up at my local Walgreens on clearance-I'm a card player so grabbed it. Question: do the value per card points combine when a card becomes Wild or just the Wild card value of 20? Example: 9 is Wild, so if you get caught with it in your hand is it just 20 pts or 20 + 9 = 29? Thanks

[@BoardGameMuseumer]

It's 20 by itself

[@ThePeterDislikeShow]

Hi. I'm programming this game as an AI and would like one clarification, do you reshuffle the discard pile when the draw runs out? It probably rarely happens when humans play but I want the AI to be accurate.

[@BoardGameMuseumer]

Yeah you would reshuffle

[@robertclark4929]

Would you review Take the Train card game? Looks k7nda interesting.

[@1mskungfu]

Don’t runs have to be the same suit?

[@manuelsantamaria2623]

Bear in mind that if a player goes out, and you cannot use the wild card or the joker either in a book or a run, you better discard it, joker is worth 50 points and the wild card is worth 20 points

[@strikerbowls791]

@A S say you have 4 different cards, you can't add the joker to any

[@MitchSmith-s8d]

Thanks for the rules, we are new to the game. You do need to vacuum that table.

[@BoardGameMuseumer]

Thank you :-) I've since replaced it

[@kathleenkurz8145]

typo....meant to type 1-7 players

[@backtothe80s97]

Can I have as many books and runs as I want based on the amount of cards I have ? For example five cards you draw you can only have one book or run because that consists of 3 or more cards ??! Or do I have to have a book and a run always ? I’m assuming you get to choose based on what cards you have like 10 cards dealt I can have one book one. Run or 10 cards that lead up to a book/run??

[@BoardGameMuseumer]

Yiu can do more than the minimum if yiu have extra

[@backtothe80s97]

Can you have as many books and runs you want or just one ?? For example: 10 cards are dealt can I have one run with ten cards/ one book with ten cards or do I have to have one of each ? It seems to me you can choose based on the cards you have to sterilize this yourself ?

[@laurastevens8199]

You can do a book of 10 cards. As long as you have at least 3 in the book. So the combination to laydown could be 2 books of 3 and 1 book of 4 or two books of 5 or a book of 7 and a book of 3 or book of 10 or book of 6 and a book of 4.

[@tonynewman777]

It seems like KZbin forces us to watch your video over and over again it starts without us and it's not what I'm asking I want to see if I can play other games with the card set

[@BoardGameMuseumer]

do you have the video set to loop off?

[@louiseugeniojr.3530]

I actually bought a copy of this game from a Walgreen's store back in late September, and my family thought it was a fun game. Overall, good review.

[@rhondafountain648]

Hey there, I got mine from Walgreens too. Caught on clearance for @ $1.49-grabbed 4 & gave as gifts this Christmas. My family plays cards...planning to play some games later today

[@mcbaby1520]

Yep found at Walgreens on clearance trying to figure it out still

[@gizclark]

The last play was a partial laydown. Is that allowed?

[@laurastevens8199]

Once the first player lays down, everyone has 1 more turn to laydown their best hand of books and any remaining cards that can't go into a book counts as points against the player.

[@laurettasheller9099]

I thought seven was wild

[@kathleenkurz8145]

our box says this game is good for 17 players. How can only one person play this game?

[@Vashiem60]

How does one play the solitaire game?

[@ChillyCharizard006]

.................Am I carzy or am I the only one who's only ever known this game as "Kings & Tres (3 in spanish)"? No wonder I couldn't find the game on Google....

[@finnjackson4260]

How many jokers are there?

[@mervynstone4737]

6

[@mcbaby1520]

Still confused as to how you know which card is wild in your hand

[@beverlytalley7190]

Game starts at 3...3 is wild card. Next round 4 is wild card. Next round 5 is wild card...

[@AClark-gs5gl]

Please don't be a complicated card game. (Typed at start of video)
