Toys and Games Reviews of Five Crowns
Customer Review: Better than Gin Rummy!
Summary: 5 Stars
I learned Gin Rummy from my grandparents, and I wish they were around to experience this newer version and to play it with my kids, who absolutely love it. This game rewards creative, flexible thinking, and is loads of fun. The only thing negative I'll say is that the quality of the card stock could be better (though I've seen worse): the paper isn't flimsy, but isn't the highest quality. And it's too bad, because the artwork/graphics on the cards themselves is pretty nice. Also, the little plastic tray that houses the cards (two decks' worth) is extremely cheap, and won't last long. This is really a shame, because this is a GREAT game, and still gets five stars from me.Customer Review: Great card game for the whole family
Summary: 5 Stars
We were introduced to this game while on vacation this year. We spent many nights up playing this with 4-8 people after the kids went to bed. The kids (ages 6-10) actually played it themselves quite a bit. When we got back home from vacation, we decided to invest in this and two other Set Enterprises games (Quiddler and SET Game) based on our experience (with Five Crowns) and on the recommendations from my dad and brother (for the other two games).Customer Review: Five Crowns is the greatest card game!
Summary: 5 Stars
Amazon.com recommended Five Crowns when I bought another card game. We love the game. It involves a lot of strategy and savvy to beat your opponent. The five suits and double decks make it easier to create books (3 or more of a kind)or runs (sequence of 3 or more cards in the same suit). Of course the wild cards change with each hand dealt which makes it more exciting. You have to pay attention because the number of cards in you hand increase with each hand dealt(from 3 at the beginning of the game to 13 in the last hand). It's a good family game that can create a lot of competition among players. It's loads of fun for everyone.Customer Review: Easy to learn. Great Fun

Wizard Card Game
Our family has played Wizard for years and I was somewhat reluctant to purchase this game because I thought it would be too similar. I was very mistaken. This game provides a refreshing change in playing cards. They advertise that you can't tell the winner until the very last hand and that is absolutely true. This game is easy to learn, fun to play and keeps you thinking. Each hand has a different wild card value. If you enjoy playing card games, this game is a lot of fun and can be played by I think up to six players. If you are looking for another card game with equal fun value, check out Wizard.
Customer Review: A "whole family" Card Game
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to give myself 5 stars for ordering this game. My whole family (which includes my husband, a teenager and a fourth grader) loves Five Crowns. I was looking for a card game we never played before to take along on our vacation. I had to make sure that any new game would be simple enough for my 9 year old to play yet be complicated enough to keep my 14 year old interested. Well, I hit the jackpot with Five Crowns. The instructions are clear and short. We learned to play Five Crowns in just one hand; we played every night on our vacation. And now that we're back... homework first, then Five Crowns.
