Wild cards can be used to complete runs. Wild cards can be used as part of flushes. Cards can be in numerical order, but do not have to be. Phase 1: 2 sets of 3 Phase 2: 1 set of 3 and 1 run of 4 Phase 3: 1 set of 4 and 1 run of 4 Phase 4: 1 run of 7 Phase 5: 1 run of 8 Phase 6: 1 run of 9 Phase 7: 2 sets of 4 Phase 8: 7 cards of one color flush Phase 9: 1 set of 5 and 1 set of 2 Phase 1 set of 5 and 1 set of 3.

Players draw a card from either the deck or the top of the discard pile at the beginning of their turn. At the end of their turn, they must discard a single card. Players must complete phases in numerical order, and only one phase may be completed in a round. When you are able to fully meet the requirements of the phase, you may lay it onto the board. Additionally, you may play extra cards as you play the phase if they fit into the phase. You could play additional fours or sixes as part of your sets, but you could not add a different set.

The cards you add to the completed phases must fit into the phase, and you can only hit after your own phase is in play. Players end the round by playing all of the cards from their hand. The player who goes out first wins the hand and scores zero points. Draw a card from either the Draw Pile or the Discard Pile, and add it to your hand. And then, discard any card that you want onto the Discard Pile. This is an example array prior to building a Phase, in this case, the second Phase.

If you have the required cards, you can then proceed to build your Phase. During your turn, if you can make a Phase, make sure you have all the required cards to form the Phase before laying them down face up in front of you. If not, after drawing and discarding your cards, play moves on to the next person in turn. Each round is played in a clockwise direction, until finally, someone completes their Phase and goes out. The first player to go out wins the hand.

Scores are recorded please see below , and the player to the left of the dealer becomes the new dealer for the new hand. All cards are gathered back in the deck after scores are tallied , shuffled, and dealt again to all the players by the dealer.

A new hand now begins. What is Hitting? Otherwise, you would always be picking up one card and then discarding one card during your turn; of course, the net result is this would not reduce the amount of cards in your hand. You are now left with a sole 7 card which you can discard onto the Discard Pile, and thus be the first player to get rid of all your cards and go out of the round. Being the first to go out.

Finishing first has its benefits. All the others who did not finish discarding all their cards ahead of you for that hand, must now count or total up their remaining cards in hand. The fewer remaining cards one has at the end of each hand, the better it will be. The scoring is as follows:.

The points scored for each hand are not a positive thing for any player. If a player is the only one to complete phase 10 when the round ends aka when someone emptied their hand , then they are the sole winner, and points are not used. If multiple people have finished phase 10 then points are compared, and the player with the lowest score wins.

I hope this helps! How do the discard rules work? Or can I just discard all my cards at once? Or is it that I have to discard one at a time and not pick up any other cards? Hi Rhahkeem, So in phase 10, you end your turn by discarding a card.

After you have gone out, you may start playing cards onto other players and your own melds but you will only ever discard one card a turn. But if your house rules are that you have to wait… to each their own. Hi Layla, Thank you so much for the information. You are absolutely correct, and I have updated the comment to show the correct information. Thank you again. Please clarify for me — I read one can put down more than the basic requirement, can one also hit on others at the same time as one meets the basic requirement.

Hi Hilary, players may play or hit on their turn, but not both. Can we play phase 10 with 7 players? If so how would it work? Same rules? And play as individuals? Hi Junior, unfortunately, Phase 10 is only designed for 2 to 6 players.

If you have a group of 7 may I suggest 2 playgroups of 3 and 4 or a player who could switch out between games? My question when playing I have laid down my phase on board. The person that discards to me discards a card that will will play on my phase but he has not laid down a phase yet can I pick up his discard and play on my phase or not? Also when playing and several players have laid down their phases when it is my turn can I play more than one card on other phases or should I just be able to only onle card on a phases and a discard?

Hi Charles, So a player cannot play a card to a phase until they have played one out themselves. You can not take a card from the discard pile unless it is the start of your turn, during your draw phase. Just make sure to keep a card to discard.
