About Play Skip Card Game
Play Skip Card is a card shedding game based on the game Cat and Mouse, also known as Skip-Bo. Tap on the blue and white PLAY button on the welcome screen to start a game. Next choose to play a game with 2 to 6 players, set the stock pile to 10 or 20 cards, and set the game goal to 25, 100, 250, or 500 points. The deck contains 162 cards numbered between 1 and 12 and SKIP cards (which act like wild cards). Lay cards to the 4 building piles in the center of the screen in ascending order starting with the number 1. Each player has a stock pile to the left, with the goal of the game to use all of your stock cards before the other players do. Each player has 4 discard piles which they can lay cards to when no more valid plays remain. Players are dealt 5 cards from the draw pile at the beginning of each hand. Each time a player's turn comes up they are refreshed cards to make a group of 5 & if you use all 5 you are dealt a new set of 5 to continue play. Players can lay to the building piles from their hand, the top of the stock pile, or the top of discard piles. Whenever a 12 is laid to a discard pile it is cleared and players can lay a 1 or a skip card to start a new building pile. Your turn ends when you lay a card to the discard pile. The hand ends when someone plays all their stock cards. The game ends when the goal score is reached by any player.
