The guy who thumbs down this video did not adhere to the non table talk rule and ruined his relationship with the people with whom he was playing. This looks fun. I’ll have to make board.

Jokers & Pegs is a fabulous game, which we often play at the 6- or 8-player level. That means two teams of three or two teams of four. There are derivations around. For example, I have seen people say it's three cards per player; others say five. I have seen people say that you have to play your own five pegs and get them into your Castle before you can 'help' a teammate. And then, only the teammate to your left. But we play in a way that any player can help a teammate from the start of the game. So, I guess the point is that there are 'variations' and one shouldn't be 'scolded' for adopting any of these variances. In the end, it is a game that practically without fail goes right down to the very last play and is great fun because of that. Also, in an evening you can get three games in, meaning you'll have great competition from beginning to end.

The backwards cards seem to break the game. Why would I ever go all the way around when I can just get out of home, use an 8 or 9, rinse and repeat. Remove nearly all risk short of joker. First time we played most used this strat and they won hands down. Missing something?

I am a little confused about the multiple decks of cards. Do you deal from each deck? I noticed in your video players had different colors of cards. Does it matter which deck you draw from?

We usually separate the decks into two piles just so we don't have one deck a mile high. Each player can draw from any deck they want which also helps the shuffling.

Started playing this game but so far has only been two player. Even though this game is designed for teams, two players as possible but I’m wondering if the game plays better with more people. We cut the deck down to only one as they were only two of us and it seemed way too easy. With all of the face cards and aces, nearly 1/ third of the deck was made up of those making it almost impossible to not always get a man out. Also add in all of the eights and nines, and it seemed like it was pretty rare where a player was even forced to go around the board without using one of those to back up Behind their home spot. Even with six or eight players, using that many decks of cards seems like he would run into the same situation? We modified and only allowed three cards in our hand because games were taking less than five minutes with five cards and all of those eights and nines backing us right up to where our home spot was. Definitely like the game, sorry but the reason that game is so good is because the really good cards are not that abundant. Using this many decks of cards puts way too much of the good stuff in there I think and takes away from the game a bit.

We don't use the 9 card, and with 6 players, with the start of 5 cards, is an over an hour game. So you must be WAY nicer than we are cause we "attack" each other all the time.
