So if a 3 of Hearts is played, you can either play another five, or any Heart. The aim of the game is to get rid of all of your cards in your hand, by playing a card that corresponds to the top card of the discard pile in either suit or number. You'll need one 52 card pack, with five cards being dealt to each player and the remaining cards creating a stock in the middle. The player who discards their whole tableau first, wins.Ĭrazy Eight is a card game that can be played in a crowd, or just as a pair. When neither player can take a go from the existing split, they turn one of the 10 remaining cards over onto the pile. Then, they place the face-up cards from their tableau onto either discard pile where there is consecutive rank - a 4 can be played onto a 3 or a 5, but not another 4, for example.Įvery time a player uses a face up card from their tableau and all that remains is a face down card below, they can turn it over. Each player turns over one of their 11 remaining cards and places it in the middle. Once the game begins, there are no 'turns' - both players play as quickly as they can. Stack 5: 4 cards face down, 1 card face upĮach player's remaining 11 cards are placed face down in the middle of the table, next to two "split piles", which start empty.Stack 4: 3 cards face down, 1 card face up.Stack 3: 2 cards face down, 1 card face up.Stack 2: 1 card face down, 1 card face up.Stack 1: (0 cards face down), 1 card face up.The entire deck is split between two players, and your cards are laid out in front of each player as their tableau as follows (the same as a game of Solitaire): The aim of Slam is to get rid of all of the cards in your hand as quickly as possible.
Sounds ridiculous (side note: is ridiculous), but Pass The Pigs is very fun. Keep playing until someone reaches 100 points. Different landings are worth different points, and if the pigs land with one black dot showing on the side, your score returns to zero - unless you have previously decided to bank your score, and let the other player have their turn. Take it in turns to throw the two little piggies up in the air, and watch how they land.
The game is possible with more than two players, but works just as well if you're in pairs. If you haven't yet played Pass The Pigs, you haven't lived. Consider boring nights in or Netflix marathons all day, every day (no shade) a thing of the past. Here, 12 of the best two player games for your next night in - some you only need a pack of cards for, while others you'll have to stock up on all the goods before you get going. But what happens when, y'know, you're legally not allowed to invite anyone over and there are only two of you in one household? Thankfully there are board games and card games designed for just two people, so you never have to go bored or without organised fun again. The Battlecade can be seen in use, in the following video.As fun as dinner party games and drinking games are, they're often created with a group of friends in mind. What is essentially a single-player version of the same system is priced at €2,499 (about US$2,897). There’s no word on whether or not you can buy the Battlecade, although if you can, it probably isn’t be cheap. Once it’s fired up, the two users can engage in a variety of classic arcade games, with the screens keeping their "playing strategies" hidden. The joysticks are unscrewed when the Battlecade is folded up, and stored along with the power supply in a built-in covered compartment. When it’s opened, it reveals two arcade-style control panels, separated by two 12-inch LCD monitors (showing the same game) that are joined back-to-back. The American walnut-bodied device can be carried folded up like a briefcase. Now, Swedish retro tech designer Love Hultén has taken that same layout, and applied it to a new two-player gaming system. There’s a unique appeal to playing Battleship, with its two-sided vertical board hiding the face-to-face players’ fleets from one another.
