Card 28 is a fast-paced, sometimes chaotic card game for 2 to 6 players, primarily played with a standard 52-card deck plus the 2 jokers, giving it its name. The objective is simple: be the first player to get rid of all your cards by playing them onto a central discard pile, known as the 'river'. Gameplay begins with each player being dealt a hand of 10 cards. The player to the dealer's left starts by playing any card from their hand that is less than or equal in rank to the top card currently on the river (ace is low, so 2 is the starting card). Play continues clockwise; each subsequent player must play a card that is one rank higher than the river's top card (e.g., if the river top is a 3, the next player must play a 4, unless they cannot, in which case they must draw a card from the stock pile). If a player cannot play a card, they must draw one from the remaining stock pile. The round ends when a player successfully plays their final card, placing the 'start' card (2) face up on the river, ready for the next round. The game is quick, requiring strategy to manage your hand effectively and anticipate opponents' moves, making it a popular choice for lively card nights.
