    RULES:
    The object of the game is to have the lowest score at the end of 11th round. Shuffle both decks together and deal 3 cards to each player in the first round. Each round, the number of cards dealt is increased by 1. In the second round, deal 4 cards and in the 3rd round deal 5 cards and so on until the last round when each player is dealt 13 cards. Place the deck in the middle of the table then flip over the top card to start the discard pile. Players look at their own cards but keep them hidden from others. The player to the left of the dealer goes first, then play proceeds clockwise. On your turn, either draw 1 card from the top of the draw deck or discard pile. Keep all your cards in your hand until you are able to “go out”. If you are unable to “go out”, you discard 1 card to the discard pile.
    To go out, lay down your entire hand of books and or runs on the table in front of you before discarding your last card. A book consists of 3 or more cards of the same value regardless of suit. You may have duplicate suites. A run consists of a sequence of 3 or more consecutive cards of the same suit.
    Jokers are always wild cards. There are also rotating wild cards that change every round. the rotating wild cards are based on the number of cards dealt that round. So when 3 cards are delt, the 3’s are wild. 11 cards is jacks, 12 is queens and 13 is kings. Wild cards can represent any value in any suite. You may have multiple wilds next to each other in runs and books.
    Once a player goes out, all the other players have 1 more turn. On this final turn, draw like normal, but then you may lay down any books and runs you have in front of you before discarding your card. You are not allowed to play on other player’s books or runs. After your final turn, add up the points from all the remaining cards in your hand. Number cards are worth their face value. Jacks are worth 11, queens 12, kings 13, Jokers 50 and the current wild cards are worth 20 points each. Record each players score on a paper then gather up all the cards and the player to the left of the current dealer becomes the dealer and a new round is played, remembering to increase the deal by 1 card. If the draw pile runs out of cards, shuffle the discard into a new draw pile.
    Once the 11th round has been completed, where kings are wilds, then the game ends and the player with the lowest score wins.

    Your How-to-Play videos are very well done, and you present the subject in a clear and concise manner. Excellent! If you were talking about a book, instead of a game, however, you would mention the author, right? Well, games have authors, too. It would be nice (and much appreciated) if you would mention the author of the game at the beginning of your video. Thanks. Five Crowns, by the way, was invented by Marsha Jean Falco, a woman known for inventing the game of SET in 1974, which was published in 1988 by her own company..

    We used to play this game with five people with a double standard deck and it was called 65. I think every hand everyone would throw in 5 cents (or $5) and whoever won the round would win the pot. Score was also tracked in the same manner.

    SIDE NOTE : YOU COULD ALSO PLAY FIVE CROWNS USING A STANDARD DECK OF PLAYING CARDS
    SET-UP :
    YOU'LL NEED 2 DECKS OF CARDS WITH A TOTAL OF 8 JOKERS AND THE ACES AND TWOS ARE REMOVED BECAUSE IN FIVE CROWNS THE LOWEST CARD IS 3 AND THE HIGHEST IS THE KING
    GAMEPLAY :
    SIMILAR TO FIVE CROWNS, REMEMBER THERE ARE ROTATING WILD CARDS, EVERY ROUND THE ROTATING WILD CARDS DEPENDS ON THE NUMBER OF CARDS DEALT IN THE ROUND.
    SCORING IS THE SAME AS IN FIVE CROWNS. THE PLAYER WITH THE LOWEST SCORE AFTER 11 ROUNDS WINS!

    I am a Filipino and this sounds like a card game called TONGITS or
    TONG ITS it's kinda like the same but
    Someone go first
    Is clockwise
    The person that gets to go first gets 13 card and others get 12 cards
    Maximum player count is 3
    The game uses normal cards aka
    13 of every card type ♠️♣️♦️♥️
    3 or more same NUMBER cards you can use to make a "book"
    And you can make a straight aka
    3 cards from the same type that makes a 123 pattern
    K is the highest while A is the lowest
    When the draw pile has no more cards the game ends and the lowest score wins
    Only has 1 round
    Or you can instantly win if you play all of your cards and shout TONGITS to let the others know that you don't have anymore cards to play
    I dont know if you can use jokers as wilds but there is a different game WITH JOKERS
    It's kind like the same TBH

    "A rummy/canasta variant, but we've added a fifth suit so you need to buy our deck to play this variant instead of just playing it with one of your existing decks for free."
    I mean, I'm not complaining---the manufacturer can't stay in business if everyone plays their games using existing decks and doesn't actually buy their product---but it's pretty obvious what they're doing.
    I suppose you could also use that deck to come up with five-suited variants of other card games.

      The fifth suit would make flushes less common and #-of-a-kinds (especially four-of-a-kinds) more common, and five-of-a-kinds would be possible and would probably need to be ranked. Depending on how the statistics work, you might also want to bump a flush above a full house if the fifth suit makes a flush less likely than a full house.
      I mean, it seems like a reasonable variant, but it wouldn't be regular poker.
