How to play Five Crowns

[@ianp1745]

my grandpa sometimes get bothered because it seems every other turn I pull a wild card off the deck. But he still has a good time with this

[@veggiet2009]

"The game is like normal rummy except for these changes"

[@AlergicToSnow]

Normal gin rummy that is. There are about 30 types of rummy, most of which don’t hold all cards in your hand until you go out.

[@emma_lee1983]

This was so much better than the tutorial video made by the actual game makers!

[@ODISeth]

I love this game it’s such a blast to play with friends and family. Round 5 is BRUTAL

[@wheresmywaterhelp]

You mean the round with 5 cards?

[@ODISeth]

@@wheresmywaterhelp oop yeah, I forget that it’s not technically round 5. My family always refers to the round by the number of cards it has, but you’re right that’s technically the third round.

[@marye.andersonrealestate3137]

We fight constantly over the round with 5 cards. Can you have a 2 carded book? NO per the rules...all books have to be greater than 3. So Round 5 is either 5 card book or a 5 card run...is that correct?

[@ODISeth]

@@marye.andersonrealestate3137 yes that is correct

[@louiseugeniojr.3530]

I bought a copy of this card game two years ago from my local Walgreens. When I played it with my family, I won.

[@cubecookie3333]

finally they brought magic the gathering colors to a standard deck

[@karenmcfarland8561]

Very clearly described and easy to understand 👏

[@kimwallace4188]

I don't play often but it's a fav at family games night. Takes me awhile to get back into the swing of it so today I watched this ahead of family game night! I'll be prepared today. Thank you. 😊

[@taibasarovadil]

I needed a refresher on these rules

[@scottwenner328]

We used to play this game with five people with a double standard deck and it was called 65. I think every hand everyone would throw in 5 cents (or $5) and whoever won the round would win the pot. Score was also tracked in the same manner.

[@alejoseito]

Thank you for your great explanation. It helps me a lot. I love this game, I learned to play last year with friends from USA. Now I play it in Guatemala with my family.

[@dovahkendov2816]

I love this game a lot. You should also do a video for the bonus ruleset included for the Five Crowns Solitaire. That would be a cool thing to have a video for as well.

[@estherbrown4084]

There is also a junior version and a small, circular version of the Five Crowns card game.

[@koppadasao]

If the kings are wild, shouldn't their queens tame them?

[@brucewhitehill2406]

Your How-to-Play videos are very well done, and you present the subject in a clear and concise manner. Excellent! If you were talking about a book, instead of a game, however, you would mention the author, right? Well, games have authors, too. It would be nice (and much appreciated) if you would mention the author of the game at the beginning of your video. Thanks. Five Crowns, by the way, was invented by Marsha Jean Falco, a woman known for inventing the game of SET in 1974, which was published in 1988 by her own company..

Everyone doesn't know that piece of info, nor would it cross their mind to ask Google for it. Are you a trivia buff?

@@wanda9740 Yes, I have written and published trivia for games. I am also a member of the SAZ, an international game authors group based in Germany whose slogan is, "Games also have authors."

[@spencerwilliams9342]

Fantastic video! No fluff, exactly what we needed at game night.

[@AdamKyleAntonio683]

SIDE NOTE : YOU COULD ALSO PLAY FIVE CROWNS USING A STANDARD DECK OF PLAYING CARDS SET-UP : YOU'LL NEED 2 DECKS OF CARDS WITH A TOTAL OF 8 JOKERS AND THE ACES AND TWOS ARE REMOVED BECAUSE IN FIVE CROWNS THE LOWEST CARD IS 3 AND THE HIGHEST IS THE KING GAMEPLAY : SIMILAR TO FIVE CROWNS, REMEMBER THERE ARE ROTATING WILD CARDS, EVERY ROUND THE ROTATING WILD CARDS DEPENDS ON THE NUMBER OF CARDS DEALT IN THE ROUND. SCORING IS THE SAME AS IN FIVE CROWNS. THE PLAYER WITH THE LOWEST SCORE AFTER 11 ROUNDS WINS!

[@ShDynasty_Comma_To_The_Top]

So you would play with 4 suits instead of the 5 this deck has?

[@AdamKyleAntonio683]

@@ShDynasty_Comma_To_The_Top yes

[@bobnden1]

in solitaire Do you have to draw and discard for any piles that can be closed after dealing?

[@LeotheTiger1234]

This is one of my favorites since I bought it off Amazon.

[@Andy-wt6ym]

2:30 I think you meant to say 13th round not 11th. EDIT: Nevermind you're right, there are 11 rounds since you start with 3s not 1s. My bad!

[@journeyofawave]

Can you have runs or books with 5 or more cards. Or are you limited to 3 and 4?

[@j.mattlakes7792]

The king of stars reminds me of Asterian 🤣

[@mollybuttons9365]

This looks awesome. I am getting it.

[@daphne-bh6rp]

Thank you for the very helpful video. Well explained. D

[@stevespace_4809]

So if you’re dealt 7 cards and so on..do you have to use all 7 cards? I’m a lil confused

[@kyzonm.b.9615]

did they repack an old card game with an extra set of cards just so they could sell is as an original idea?

[@shantanunene4389]

Isn't this just Rummy with 5 suites?

[@zafirgaming8981]

All of us liked this video

[@aidenthompson8766]

Isn’t this 3 13 with a few key differences

[@MsShep55]

What is the maximum number of players anyone has had ?

[@EdKolis]

Can you put two wilds in the same run but not adjacent to each other? Like, 6W8W?

[@Xx_Henry_xX]

yes (rummy games normally allow multiple wilds in a set)

[@EdKolis]

Sounds like gin rummy but with an extra suit?

[@citronvannalemon]

Can the runs loop over? (i.e. J, Q, K, A, 2, 3)

[@Zyugo]

There are no Aces and Deuces in Five Crowns, sadly.

[@MisterBrick42]

I recently heard about a game called Monopoly Fall Guys. Can you do a tutorial on that because I wanna hear about it

[@DoomSpellSkadi]

Can we play normal poker game with Five Crowns deck?

[@amthy5675]

I don't think so

[@DoomSpellSkadi]

@@amthy5675 Some casino play blackjack with multiple decks, duplicate card seens no problem

[@erickpoorbaugh6728]

The fifth suit would make flushes less common and #-of-a-kinds (especially four-of-a-kinds) more common, and five-of-a-kinds would be possible and would probably need to be ranked. Depending on how the statistics work, you might also want to bump a flush above a full house if the fifth suit makes a flush less likely than a full house. I mean, it seems like a reasonable variant, but it wouldn't be regular poker.

[@danielyuan9862]

@@erickpoorbaugh6728 I did the math, and a flush is, indeed, less likely than a full house with 5 suits, and a 5-of-a-kind would be ranked higher than a straight flush.

[@usswasp6530]

do u boot the boardgame, im lazy at reading

[@Allaiya.]

Thank you!

[@p4SS1v3]

I am a Filipino and this sounds like a card game called TONGITS or TONG ITS it's kinda like the same but Someone go first Is clockwise The person that gets to go first gets 13 card and others get 12 cards Maximum player count is 3 The game uses normal cards aka 13 of every card type ♠️♣️♦️♥️ 3 or more same NUMBER cards you can use to make a "book" And you can make a straight aka 3 cards from the same type that makes a 123 pattern K is the highest while A is the lowest When the draw pile has no more cards the game ends and the lowest score wins Only has 1 round Or you can instantly win if you play all of your cards and shout TONGITS to let the others know that you don't have anymore cards to play I dont know if you can use jokers as wilds but there is a different game WITH JOKERS It's kind like the same TBH

[@ToABrighterFuture]

The game can actually be played by 12 players if, at the end of each round, the player with the highest total score is eliminated.

[@jeffpatch6183]

Is somebody accidentally throws a wildcat does it go to the next player or can anybody pick it up

[@quicgrid]

This is basically "Hearts", but with a fifth deck and rotating wild cards other than 2s.

[@erickpoorbaugh6728]

"A rummy/canasta variant, but we've added a fifth suit so you need to buy our deck to play this variant instead of just playing it with one of your existing decks for free." I mean, I'm not complaining---the manufacturer can't stay in business if everyone plays their games using existing decks and doesn't actually buy their product---but it's pretty obvious what they're doing. I suppose you could also use that deck to come up with five-suited variants of other card games.

[@argentum1738]

Unfortunately, this game lacks aces and 2s so you're going to have a hard time finding another game for this deck to work with.

[@charamaster7042]

Normal card but DLC

[@dragonspy481]

Isn't this just a weird phase 10?

[@RNhool]

I seriously hate this game with all my heart and soul, what do people find interesting or even relatively fun about this 😢😂

[@preposteroussongs5572]

Oh so it's just pay me with an extra suit

[@randomstuff65486]

Basically this is crazy eights

[@asmrjackunboxinggames4328]

This Card Game is Full of Wilds. Too much Wild Cards ruins the game.

[@danielyuan9862]

There's 5 suits though.

[@jacobsnyder8043]

prob could go pro in this game lmao

[@DelusionDispeller]

Too confusing

[@markvowell]

QUESTION 👍 = can you Go out with not ALL your cards and take a hit with points example…. 7 cards 5run, toss 1 card and take points on the remaining card? For a Strategic play that I’m happy to take say 3 points knowing other players may need to take more therefore increasing their scores. 👎 = you MUST be able to Go out with ALL cards and toss one out?

[@wanda9740]

👎= you must lay all your cards down and discard to win.

[@xdrevert8405]

[@Deleted_Eevee]

This honestly just sounds like phase 10 but with extra steps
