Product Description
Five Crowns is a fast-paced ingenious rummy - like card a game. Its double deck contains 5 suits (the stars are new), but it has no aces or twos. This unique deck gives you many more options for arranging your hand into sets and sequences. The challenge is to see them make the right combinations, be the first to go out; then watch the others scramble as they get one last chance to cut their losses. Five Crowns, with its beautiful, colorful cards, is easy to learn. Start with 3 cards -- and 3s are wild. The next hand has 4 cards and 4s are wild... and so on. You'll need luck and skill throughout the game because even in the last hand a worthy opponent can come from behind and win. Remember, "the game isn't over 'til the Kings go wild!" For up to 2-7 players.

 Fun, easy game! August 30, 2010

Love Five Crowns August 16, 2010

I bought 3 copies of this game for ourselves, and Grandma. It is a similar to rummy, but with an increasing number of cards each hand. Our family plays it all the time. My mother-in-law bought it to play with her "card group". Lots of fun.
Excellent Fun August 16, 2010

GREAT card game. Fun and doesn't take hours to finish. We play with mostly teens and adults as there is a strategy to the game. Easy to understand instructions. Highly recommend.

I love this game -- it is great to toss it in my pocketbook or tote bag and take with us on a trip. It doesn't take up much space, and can entertain us for quite a long period of time. We have played this with my step-son since he was 6 -- for the later rounds it is a little challenging for him to hold all the cards and keep track of what he has, but we just give him plenty of time for his turn and he is able to hold his own against the adults. The rules are simple enough that you can teach the game in just a few minutes -- also because the rounds gradually increase in card number and complexity of options, you get to start out very basic which also helps any noobs.
We love the sub-title that the game is not over until the 'Kings go wild' ... it is really true! Even if you are 100 points behind, in the last round if you get lucky and your opponent do not, you could still win. I have bought this for gifts and it is always enjoyed.

E-Z Bat Baseball Bat Toy is a Hit with Toddlers
The E-Z Bat (by Monkey Business Sports) was invented by a dad, probably because he was tired of pitching then retrieving 5000 baseballs a day. It's a simple concept that works! Kids thread the firm, foam-rubber donut-shaped ball on the end of the bat. A little stopper keeps it in place and it's a base hit every time. If you want to pitch the balls, the stopper comes off and that works just as w...
