How to Play Fe Fi Fo Fum Card Game
First, shuffle and deal all of the cards to the players. It is okay if some players have more cards than other players. It is okay if some players have more cards than orders.
Next, the player to the dealer’s left gets to start. She can play any card she would like. When playing her card, she puts it face up on the table and says “fe.”
The player who has the next card in the sequence of that suit plays down the card and say s “Fi”.
Next, the players with the remaining cards in the sequence their cards down saying “Fo,” and “Fum” in turn. The player with the next card plays his card and says “Giants turn.”
Now it is the player who said “Giants turn” turn to start. First, he collects the cards in the middle and places them to the side. Now he may play any card he would like from his hand saying “Fe.”
The game continues with players playing the Fe Fi Fo Fum Ginat’s turn cards in order.
The aces are low and the kings are high. The king is the last card in any sequence so when a king is played, an ace cannot be played directly after it.
When a card is played and the card that follows it in the sequence has already been played, it is a stop card. When this happens, the player who put down the stop card collects the cards and starts again with a new Fe card.
