Information about Crazy Eights Online
This free online version of Crazy Eights allows you to play on every device, and on every browser. You don’t have to download it. Just click the green “Play” button and get started. It is very basic and ideal for players who just want to pass the time without too much strategy involved.
This specific version of the game was developed and released by Zygomatic in 2017.
Quick Instructions
You are matched up against 4 other players and one standard deck is used.
- The goal of Crazy Eights is to be the first player to get rid of all your cards.
- On your turn, you must either play a legal card or draw a card from the stock pile.
- A legal card matches the top card on the discard pile in rank or suit.
- An 8 is a wild card. When you play an 8, you may choose the new suit that must be followed.
- If you play a legal card, discard it onto the discard pile.
As you can see, this online version of the game is very simple since only the 8 has a special effect.
