How To Play Go Fish Instructions?

Use a standard 52-card deck

Deal 5 cards to each player if there are 2 to 3 players

Deal 7 cards to each player if there are 4 or more players

Place the remaining cards face down in the center as the draw pile

Choose a player to go first

On your turn, ask one other player for a specific rank you already have in your hand

You must ask for a rank you hold at least one card of

The player you ask must give you all cards of that rank if they have any

If you get cards, continue your turn

If you do not get cards, they say “Go fish”

Draw one card from the draw pile

If the drawn card matches the rank you asked for, keep playing

If it does not match, end your turn

Whenever you collect all 4 cards of a rank, place that set face up in front of you

Continue taking turns until the draw pile is empty and all hands are empty

The player with the most completed sets wins
