flip 7 – HOW TO PLAY


Flip a card. Push your luck. Don’t go bust!

Think you’ve got luck on your side? Flip 7 is a fast-paced card game where every card could bring you closer to victory โ€” or cost you everything!

Keep flipping to score more points, but watch out! Draw the same number twice and you’ll lose all your points for that round.

๐Ÿ“ Keep Track of Your Score!

No pen and paper? No problem!

Use the officialย Flip 7 Score Sheetย to keep track of everyone’s points throughout the game!

๐ŸŽฏ The Aim of the Game

Be the first player to reach 200 points by collecting number cards without drawing duplicates!

Players: 3+

Playing Time: Approximately 20 minutes

๐Ÿƒ Getting Started

  1. Shuffle the deck thoroughly.
  2. Choose a dealer and have something ready to keep track of scores.
  3. The dealer gives each player one card face up, resolving any special cards as they appear.
  4. Players then take turns deciding whether to draw another card or keep their points.

โ–ถ๏ธ How to Play

On your turn, you have two choices:

But be careful!

If you draw a number you already have, you BUST! You’re out of the round and score ZERO points, unless you have a Second Chance card.

The more cards you collect, the greater the risk!

โšก Special Cards

๐Ÿ”’ Freeze

Choose an active player (including yourself). That player must immediately stop drawing, bank their points and sit out the rest of the round.

โšก Flip Three

Choose an active player (including yourself). They must draw three cards in a row!

If they draw a duplicate number, they bust unless protected by a Second Chance card.

โค๏ธ Second Chance

Keep this card to protect yourself from drawing a duplicate number.

If you draw a number you already have, discard the duplicate and your Second Chance card instead of busting.

You can only hold one Second Chance card at a time.

โž• Bonus Cards (+2, +4, +6, +8, +10)

These cards add extra points to your score at the end of the round.

โœ–๏ธ Double Points (ร—2)

Doubles the total value of your number cards! Bonus cards are added afterwards.

๐ŸŒŸ The Flip 7 Bonus!

Collect 7 different number cards without drawing a duplicate and you’ve hit FLIP 7!

Remember, only number cards count towards your seven cards โ€” not action or bonus cards!

๐Ÿ† How to Score & Win

At the end of each round:

  1. Add together the values of your number cards.
  2. Double that total if you have a ร—2 card.
  3. Add any bonus points from your + cards.
  4. Add 15 extra points if you achieved Flip 7.

Example:

You collect 3, 5, 8 and 10, plus a +4 bonus card.

3 + 5 + 8 + 10 + 4 = 30 points!

Keep playing rounds until someone reaches 200 points. The player with the highest total score at the end of that round wins!

Will you play it safe, or risk it all for one more card?
