            H O W   T O  P L A Y           C R A Z Y  E I G H T S        In Crazy Eights, each player begins with sevencards.  The rest of the deck is placed face downand the top card is turned over forming thediscard pile.  To begin play, the first personlooks at their hand and selects a card thatmatches either the number (except an eight), orsuit (hearts, spades, clubs, or diamonds), andplaces it on the discard pile.  If a player isunable to play a card from their hand, they mustdraw from the deck (keeping all of the cards theydraw), until they draw either the same number orsuit of the card in the discard pile.  If a playerprefers to choose a card from the deck, they maydo so instead of playing a card from their ownhand.        On any turn, a player may elect to play aneight which is considered "wild".  When a playerplaces an eight they are able to change the suitto whatever they want it to be (usually this isthe suit that represents the most cards in theirhand).  An eight may NOT be used to change numberor face cards, however.  After an eight isdeclared to be another suit, the other player mustplay a card of that suit or counter with anothereight of their own.        The game continues this way until one of theplayers discards the last card in their hand and"goes out." If the deck is used up and neither ofthe players can lay down a card, then the gameends in a "block."        When the hand ends, the winner receives 50points for each eight, 10 points for each facecard, and 1 point for each ace.  All other cardsreceive the number of points indicated by the card(i.e., a seven equals 7 points).  If a hand endsin a block, the player with the lowest totalreceives the difference of the other player'shand.  In the case of a tie game, both playerssplit the points between themselves.        The game ends when either player reaches 100points.  At this time the game will ask bothplayers if they wish to play again.            ----    END    ----
