About Crazy Little Eights
Crazy Eights is the card game that Uno was built from. You play cards matching the top of the discard pile by rank or suit; eights are wild and let you nominate a new suit; if you can't play, you draw. First to empty their hand wins.
It's simple enough for children and has just enough strategy — when to spend an eight, which suit to nominate — to stay interesting for adults.

Crazy Little Eights tips
- Hold an eight for when you're stuck rather than spending it early.
- Nominate the suit you hold most of.
- Track what your opponent draws — it tells you which suits they lack.
- Play high cards early; they're penalty points if you're caught with them.
Crazy Little Eights — questions
What do eights do in Crazy Eights?
They're wild — you can play one on anything, and you nominate the suit that must be matched next. Holding one is insurance against being unable to play.
Is Crazy Eights the same as Uno?
Uno is a commercial descendant of it with a dedicated deck and extra action cards. The core rule — match by rank or colour, wilds change the colour — is the same.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes — tap a card to play it. Nothing to install.
