Summary: Fun for Teams or Just Two
Comment: The first time I played this was in teams (3 couples) and had a blast, I had to buy a deck. What's really nice about this game is you can play it with just two people. You can also adjust the length of the game by the number of cards that are dealt to each player.

Summary: Addictive, challenging, and (best of all!) fun
Comment: When you see "From the makers of Uno" on the package of a game, you know you're in for a fun time. And you wouldn't be wrong to assume this with Skip-Bo, an addictive, challenging, and outrageously fun card game that, in my opinion, is actually a better game than Uno.
The rules are fairly simple: build piles of cards sequentially from 1 up to 12 (you can have up to four piles) while attempting to play all your cards from a special "stock pile" that you have. The first person to clear this special pile wins.
Why is Skip-Bo better than Uno? For one thing, Skip-Bo is much more dependent on skill than its famous predecessor. You may not want to discard certain cards (e.g. you may want to retain wild cards until they are needed), and stopping the opponents from playing the cards in their stock piles is a big part of this game.
Skip-Bo games are also often longer and the race between the players is often furious and intense. The game could turn around at any minute... and it quite frequently does. I was once behind, but I finally caught up, beating my opponent by one card! For excitement and challenge, you can't go wrong with Skip-Bo!
And perhaps best of all, you can play this fabulous game with just one friend, or with your whole family! As I said, the more the merrier, but no matter how many players you have, you're sure to have lots of fun!
This game makes a fine addition to any family's game collection. For other great card games, see Uno, Rage, and Phase-10 (some of my other favorites).

Summary: Skip Bo Reviw
Comment: As always with Amazon the purchase was easy, the shipment was fast and the product arrived as promised. A fun game which as you play you learn to develop a routine to help you to be the first one to finish. You have to pay attention and plan ahead and you need a little luck too. A fast and fun game for a small group of players.

Summary: Skip-B0
Comment: We love this game. It is similar to Flinch, but much more interesting and more strategy. It can be played at different levels, so it can be fun, even with a 1st grader. (Such a relief from Candy Land!) We currently play it with a 4th grader, a young adult and two grandparents and have great fun. It is a great mix of luck and strategy. Our only question is: Why is it called Skip-Bo?
