 how to play "KNOCK"
www.thirtyhandmadedays.com
2-6 players
Regular decks of cards
(1) 52 card deck for two players,
(2) decks for three or four people
After that it doesn’t matter, as long as you have enough cards to play with.

This game has 11 rounds. The first dealer is chosen at random and the
turn to deal passes to the left after each round.
In the first round 3 cards are dealt to each player, in the second round
four cards are dealt and so on until the last round (Kings) in which
13 cards each are dealt.

The rest of the cards are placed face down on the table to form a pile.
The top card of the stock is being flipped face up and put beside the
stock pile to start the discard pile.

OBJECT OF THE GAME

The object of the game is to form all the cards in your hand
into sets. There are two types of sets:

---a set or group of three or more cards of a kind

such as H5-C5-S5.

When playing with more than one deck it is possible for a set
to contain identical cards. For example:H9-C9-C9.

----a run or sequence of three or more cards in the same suit

For example: H4-H5-H6

Note: Sets can contain more than three cards - for example:
four 7’s or 8-9-10-J-Q of a suit.
BUT, you can’t count the same card as part of more
than one combination.
For example S5-S6-S7-H6-C6 is either
a set of sixes with a 5 and 7 of S left over,
or a run of S with two sixes left over.

Aces are low in this game, so A-2-3 is a valid sequence but Q-K-A isn’t.
WILD CARDS
In each round there is a wild card. It is the card equal to the number of
cards dealt. Wild cards can be used in place of any other card in
making a group or sequence. You can even make a set that consists of
only wild cards if you wish.
Round 1 Threes are wild Round 6 Eights are wild.
Round 2 Fours are wild Round 7 Nines are wild.
Round 3 Fives are wild Round 8 Tens are wild.
Round 4 Sixes are wild Round 9 Jacks are wild.
Round 5 Sevens are wild Round 10 Queens are wild.
Round 11 Kings are wild..

HOW TO PLAY
The player to dealer's left begins, and players take turns clockwise
around the table.
A turn consists of drawing one card - either the top card of the face
down stock or the top card of the discard pile - and then discarding
one card face up on top of the discard pile.
**Only the top card of the discard pile can be taken
HOW TO “GO OUT”
You can go out at your turn to play if, after drawing the top card of
the stock or the top discard, you are able to arrange all the cards
in your hand except one into separate sets, and then discard a
card.
In this case, when discarding you KNOCK (yes, literally knock). Each
of the other players is allowed one more turn. When the turn to play
comes back to you the round is over and the scores are calculated.
HOW TO SCORE
At the end of the round, each player arranges as much as possible
of their hand into sets and runs. Any cards that are not included in a
set or run are counted as penalty points against the holder.
Ace= 1pt Six= 6pts
Two= 2pts Seven= 7pts
Three= 3pts Eight= 8pts
Four= 4pts Nine= 9pts
Five= 5pts Ten = 10pts
The scores are accumulated from round to round, and whoever
has the lowest score at the end of the eleventh round is the
winner.

www.thirtyhandmadedays.com

2-6 players
(2) decks of playing cards
If you have more than 4 players, add an additional deck of cards

OBJECT OF THE GAME

The object of the game is to have the lowest score at the end.

SETTING UP RIPPLE
Decide what you’d like to play to. We’ve often played to 100 points or -100
points, whichever comes first.

Place 2 decks in the middle of the table, face down, and move them around,
face down to shuffle. This is the community draw pile.

Without looking at the cards, the players put their cards face down in front
of them in 2 rows with 5 cards in each row (10 cards total).
Players turn over any 3 cards they want to be face up.

HOW TO PLAY
The first player takes a card from the community draw pile. The player can
exchange it with one of the 10 cards by flipping one card up in exchange.
The one that was exchanged is placed above the rows of the cards. This is a
personal discard pile.
If the player doesn’t want the card that he/she drew from the community pile,
he/she places it in their discard pile.
The player to the left goes next. This player can take a card from the
community draw pile or from any of the players’ discard piles. If he/she
draws a card and doesn’t want to use it, she places it in her personal discard
pile.
Play continues until one player has all of her cards turned over. This ends the
round but the remaining players get one more turn before adding up their
points.
ADDITIONAL PLAY TO THE GAME
MATCHING CARDS:
If you draw a card that has the same value of a card that is face up in
your use it to replace the card that is either above or below the card
with the matching value.
The score of the two matching cards cancels out and becomes zero.
“BLOCK PARTY:”
If you have two sets of matching cards that are side by side, you
subtract 20 from the score for that round. This is called a “Block Party.”

ADDITIONAL BLOCK PARTIES:

If you have three sets of matching cards that are side by side, subtract
40 points from your score for that round.
If you have four sets of matching cards that are side by side, subtract
60 points from your score that round.

HOW TO “RIPPLE:”
If you draw a card that matches one of your cards that is face up and
the card either above or below it is still face down, exchange the card
that you drew with the face down card.
If the face down card matches a card that is face up, exchange that
card with the card either above or below it that is face down. You can
continue to ‘ripple’ as long as the card that you turned face up can be
exchanged for one that is face down. (You cannot exchange a card
that was turned face up with a card that is already face up.)
HOW TO SCORE
Ace= 1pt Six= 6pts Jack= 0pts
Two= 2pts Seven= 0 pts Queen= 10 pts
Three= 3pts Eight= 8pts King= 10 pts
Four= 4pts Nine= 9pts Joker= 0 pts
Five= 5pts Ten = 10pts

The scores are accumulated from round to round.

The game is over when someone reaches either 100 points or
-100 points.
