Crazy Eights is a card game for two or more players. The object of the game is to get rid of all your cards to a discard pile.
There are a number of variations of the basic game, and a number of different names including Crates, Finlander's Uno, Last One, Mau-Mau, Pesten, Rockaway, Spoons, Swedish Rummy, Switch and Tchausepp. In Britain it is often referred to as Black Jack (not to be confused with Blackjack). Bartok, Mao and UNO are more extreme variations, containing elements not covered in this entry.
Generally, a standard 52-card pack is used, although some variations may use jokers as wild, and others may use more than one pack. Each player is (usually) dealt seven or eight cards, with the rest of the deck being placed face down at the centre of the table. The top card is then turned face up to start the discard pile.
