SKIP BO

To begin the game, players are dealt the same amount of cards face down into what becomes their personal STOCK pile. During play, they draw from a central DRAW pile and work towards starting up to four BUILDING piles. Each pile is then built up numerically in sequence, 1 through 12. The first player to deplete their pile wins! A Skip-Bo card is “wild” and can be played to start a BUILDING pile or as any other number, too. These cards are perfect for breaking up static situations or helping to beat your opponents. This game presents numerous opportunities to strategize: the organizing of cards into the discard piles, avoid setting up the next players for good plays, knowing when to play from which option and especially the timing of playing a valuable “Skip-Bo” wild card.
