Like UNO? Well meet it's daddy: Crazy Eights. Did you know, that the name Crazy Eights dates to the 1940s, derived from the military designation for discharge of mentally unstable soldiers, Section 8? The game is very popular especially with children. There are many variations of the basic game, and a number of different names including Crates, UNO, Last One, Mau-Mau, Pesten, Rockaway, Spoons, Swedish Rummy, Switch, Last Card, Screw Your Neighbour, and Tschausepp. Eight cards are dealt to each player. Players discard by matching rank or suit with the top card of the discard pile, starting with the player left of the dealer. If a player is unable to match the rank or suit of the top card of the discard pile and does not have an eight, he draws one card from the stockpile. If he has a card he can play it otherwise the turn passes to the next player. If still doesn't have a card, he passes a turn to a next player. When a player plays an eight, he or she must declare the suit that the next player is to play. As an example: Once the six of clubs is played the next player can: - play any of the other sixes - play any of the clubs - play any eight (must declare the suit) - draw from the stockpile Points are incurred for any cards left on hand at the end of a round - 25pts for an eight, 10pts for a face card, and face value for a spot card. Game over once looser reaches 100 pts, at that point the winner is the one with lowest score. Don't forget to check our Games section for more fun games...

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Crazy Eights + at 100% against Crazy Eights's 15%. Crazy Eights + also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Crazy Eights's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.0) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Crazy Eights holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Crazy Eights + has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 15% of Crazy Eights's written reviews are positive against 100% of Crazy Eights +'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
