8's Wild! Solitaire

8s Wild! is a classic single player card game, where you try to match the suits and ranks against the clock for the highest score. Play fast and make as many matches as possible for the highest score! It has similar rules to UNO just played as a single player.

Gameplay:

• 5 cards are dealt
• 3 Empty card drops at the start of the game
• Any card can be dropped on an empty card drop
• Once a card is dropped the next card has to match the suit or the rank (A-K)
• If the same Rank is played bonus points are awarded and the bonus for that drop increases
• If a Suit of a different rank is played then the bonus streak ends until a new sequence starts.
• In a round the bonus points continue to increase until the end of the round.
• For example if in the first column you drop (5 spade), then (5 hearts) the bonus points are +500 and the increase by 500 (so next match is worth +1000), if the next card is not a 5 (different rank) such as a (9 or hearts) *the suit must match. The bonus points are not given as the rank didn’t match, however if the next card is a 9, the bonus points increase and it continues til the end of the round.
• If you have a (8s Wild) card that can be placed at any time, however no bonus points are awarded. Any card can be placed on an 8s Wild card

Scoring:

• Points are awarded for each card played. There is a play timer (the round circle on the face down card) that counts down after each card is played. This awards extra points, so quick play is encouraged for more points.
• If a rank match is made then bonus points for that drop are awarded
• If a round finishes, and all the non-8 cards have been played
• Bonus points are awarded for clearing the cards
• Remaining time on the main counter is added to the score (1000 pts per timer dot)
• Any remaining 8’s are worth the following
• 1 = 10,000, 2 = 20,000, 3 = 30,000 4 = 50,000
• (If you had 3 8s Wild at the end of the round you’d get 10,000 + 20,000 + 30,000 = 60,000)
• If enough points are scored between the two rounds you can go to the 3rd bonus round for even more points
