How To Play Garbage Card Game?

Use a standard 52-card deck

Deal 10 cards face down to each player in two rows of five

Place the remaining cards in a draw pile

Flip the top card of the draw pile to start the discard pile

On your turn, draw one card from the draw pile or take the top card from the discard pile

If the card matches a needed position in your layout, place it there face up

The card must match the position number or value needed to fill that spot

If the card does not fit anywhere, discard it face up

If you place a card, take the face-down card from that spot and try to place it in its matching position

Keep continuing this chain until a card cannot be placed

Kings are usually wild and can fill any spot

Aces are usually low and count as 1

Face cards are usually not used except kings as wild cards

The goal is to turn all your face-down cards face up first

When you complete your layout, you must still take one more turn to win on your next turn

The first player to reveal all 10 cards wins

If playing multiple rounds, the winner of each round can be the next dealer

Agree on house rules before starting, since some versions vary on wild cards and exact card values
