Get ready for an unpredictable, fast-paced, family-friendly card game! The 5 Alive game is a wild twist on the classic game of 21. This is a fun card game for the family, great for parties, fast fun on weeknights, and game night with the family. Keep the running total under 21 to stay in the game. If you go over, you flip an Alive card. Lose five lives and you're out. Players need to strategize, take chances, and press their luck as they try to get rid of their cards as quickly as possible and force their opponents to flip. The twist is in the wild cards; players can play them to save their life, or zap their opponents' life. The game is easy to learn and fun for just about everyone. It's a great indoor activity for 2-6 players and makes a great travel game for kids ages 8 and up.
