How to Play Go Fish Cards?

Shuffle a standard deck of cards

Deal 5 cards to each player

Place the remaining cards face down as the draw pile

Look at your cards and group any matching ranks together

On your turn, choose another player and ask for a specific rank you already have

Example: “Do you have any 7s?”

You must ask for a rank you hold in your hand

If the player has one or more of that rank, they must give all of them to you

If the player does not have that rank, they say “Go fish”

If told to “Go fish,” draw one card from the draw pile

If you draw the rank you asked for, you may keep it and take another turn

If you draw a different card, your turn ends

When you collect four cards of the same rank, lay them down as a set

Continue taking turns until all sets are made

The game ends when the draw pile is empty and no one has cards left to ask for

The player with the most sets wins
