How to play Egyptian Ratscrew: Slap Your Friends

[@hatemalashkar3469]

Best card game channel ever.

[@slendersage8728]

Used to play this in middle school and was CONVINCED that the name of this game was so ridiculous that it couldn’t possibly be the actual name of the game. Imagine my surprise decades later finding out that it really is called this. Also, the friend I used to play with all the time was very fond of rings. And much quicker than me. Painful.

[@jasoniacullo1613]

Me and my family called it Egyptian war and that’s what I always thought it was called. I like this name better 😂

[@Stephanfritzel]

This is a good refresher! I haven't played this game in over ten years...it's so fun. :]

[@lionsbreath852]

Dang, turns out I was playing this game wrong. I totally get it now. Love the animations and you explained it well.

[@ShaddySoldier]

You should do the game "B.S." it was super popular when I went to school. Everyone played it at lunch.

[@Rulies]

ShaddyCrunchum Thanks ShadyC! Thats a really good Idea! I’ll do that one next.

[@umanaidujonnareddy3804]

After so many videos to understand this game..... this is the best narration 🙏👍

[@Rulies]

Thank you! I hope you have fun playing it. This is a fun game :)

Super underrated channel

[@Rulies]

Thanks!!!

[@chrisbacon3665]

We use to play this game in Highschool and we were definitely violent with our slaps. We'd leave with red hands

[@Rulies]

Haha brutal!!!

[@jdopera]

I just found this channel today and LOVE IT - my niece and nephew played many of your games today - THANK YOU! Could you please do Hearts next! 💓💕

[@Rulies]

Thanks Jen! Feedback like this makes my day. Hearts is a really fun game, good idea! I’m currently working on a couple other games, but Hearts is now on the to do list. Stay tuned. :)

I always thought it was called “Egyptian raptrack” xD apparently they call it Egyptian rat slap. This game is super popular in my class, I love playing it. The only difference is that whoever placed the face or ace card got all the cards when the next person lost. Also we don’t punish those who slap without needing to or having your hand over it, people dislike it though.

[@aipa1560]

Also slap pile when: King and Queen or Queen and King. Same numbers on top and bottom 1 different card between 2 same numbers. example is: 757 Whenever card value equals 10. J Q & K = 0 they are only in middle. ace =1. example: 4 6 When pile shows a joker When 4 cards forwards or backwards in order.

[@samathajanjanam556]

Superb One

[@one.ofmillions]

Used to play this all the time in high school. We used to call it ‘Egyptian War’ instead of Ratscrew but rules were the same. Remember whoever was best at slapping would usually win and there’d be this competition between all of us to try to out do eachother. Fun memories.

[@vrixphillips]

lol but slapping extra hard was the best part

[@Rulies]

I admit it, you have a good point. 😂

[@to_be_consumed]

my English teacher is surprisingly really fucking good at this game

[@Leblunk]

my friend and I used to play this our Sophomore year of highschool but we called it Magicians Rat Slap

[@ItsSkyWasTaken]

In the version I play, 10s cancel the face card rule (i.e., a face card/ace *or a 10* will save you from a previous player's face card). Additionally, if you slap incorrectly without any cards, then instead of burning a card (because you have none), you have to "burn your hand", or put your hand under the cards (yes, the place where everyone else is slapping). You may not slap while your hand is in the middle, and you may take your hand out only when someone captures the centre pile (by slap or by face card). Also our win condition isn't to be the last person with cards; it's to be the first to possess all 52 cards. This means that when everyone else runs out of cards, you have to keep playing your cards to the center until you can slap, and others can still slap back in during this time. _If everyone runs out of cards and there are no slaps available, the game is drawn._ Common slap rules include: - Doubles (x, x) - Sandwich (x, y, x) - Top-Bottom (top = bottom*) - 10s (x, y --> x + y = 10**) - Sandwich 10s (x, y, z --> x + z = 10) - Top-Bottom 10s (top + bottom = 10s) - Marriage (K, Q) - Divorce (K, , Q; basically "marriage sandwich") - Straight (AKA "run"; three consecutive cards in order, i.e., [3, 4, 5] or [2, A, K]) - Flush (three cards of the same suit) - Jokers (slap jokers if they are used) * "Top" refers to the most recently played card, and "Bottom" refers to the card that was played first. Burned cards do not change the bottom. ** A = 1 (so [A, 9] = slap)

Slap Jack is fun

[@Rulies]

It sure is! It’s a similar game but I think it deserves its own video. Thanks for the great suggestion, I’ll add it to my to my list of future videos.

[@lifegiveslifeto]

My family also slaps when either red 10 is played

[@audysingkoh56]

Maybe you can do another version of this,we call "slap the mosquito."The game is the contrary of this game.Each turn when player discard card he have to say it out loud,like he says Ace while discarding card,if the card match with the player says,everyone compete to slap the card,the last player who is late to slap, have the cards.This game is like counting number 1-10,K,Q,J,...Ace is one.It does while discarding card.The player who have many cards is lost.

[@elminacrash]

Thanks! How come this one doesn't have a cat in it like crazy eights??

[@brittishcullen4118]

In Jamaica we call this game strip me. You can choose to take your clothes off lol but we dont have the slap part with the doubles

[@Rulies]

It’s too cold over here for that! Haha

[@isaaclee5123]

When playing can the player who plays the card slap?

[@Rulies]

Hi Zickey! Yes they can! That’s why they must quickly play the card without looking at it first. If they saw it, that wouldn’t be fair at all.

[@maskd7002]

To be honest I really hate this game because It always give me shocked but yet its fun to play
