Go Fish is a simple card game where players try to collect sets of four cards of the same rank by asking other players for cards.
Number of Players
Go Fish is usually played with 2 to 5 players.
Cards Needed
Go Fish is played with a standard 52-card deck.
Dealing Cards
If there are 2 players, deal 7 cards to each player.
If there are 3 to 5 players, deal 5 cards to each player.
Place the remaining cards face down in the center to form the draw pile.
Gameplay Rules
Players take turns asking another player for a specific card rank that they already have in their hand.
For example:
“Do you have any 9s?”
If the player has that card, they must give all cards of that rank to the asking player.
If the player does not have that card, they say “Go Fish,” and the asking player draws a card from the draw pile.
If a player gets the card they asked for, they take another turn.
If not, the next player takes a turn.
Making Sets
When a player collects four cards of the same rank, they place the set face up in front of them.
Winning the Game
The game ends when all sets are made or the draw pile is empty. The player with the most sets of four cards wins.
Summary
Go Fish rules include:
Ask other players for cards
Draw a card if they do not have it
Make sets of four cards
The player with the most sets wins
