How to play Go Fish

  1. 1Collect books: all four cards of a rank. Seven cards each with two or three players, five each with more; the rest form the pond.
  2. 2On your turn, pick a card from your hand and ask any player for that rank. If they have any, they must hand them all over and you ask again.
  3. 3If they have none, they say “Go fish” and you draw from the pond. Draw the rank you asked for and you show it and go again; otherwise your turn ends.
  4. 4Complete books are laid down straight away. If your hand runs out, draw a card from the pond on your turn.
  5. 5When all thirteen books are made, the player with the most books wins.
