Screw Your Neighbor Card Game

 admin

When one name is applied to many different games, the confusion is much greater, particularly for a web site like this one, in which people often try to find the rules of a card game by looking up its name. One of the worst cases of this kind of confusion is with the name. Your Neighbor, for example 'Screw Your Neighbor'. See full list on gamerules.com.

  1. Screw Your Neighbour, or Ranter-Go-Round, is a classic card game for 3 or more players. The game requires a standard 52 playing card deck and is suitable for ages 6 and up. In Screw Your Neighbor, Aces are low and Kings are high. The objective of Screw Your Neighbor is to have the lowest card value.
  2. Aug 03, 2017 Also known as Screw Your Neighbor, Be Mean to Your Neighbor, or I'm sure many other names. This is a party game that despite the name is kid friendly. Easy to learn easy to play. Deck: standard 52 card (no jokers).
  3. Screw Your Neighbour is a trick taking game similar to Bridge but more similar to Spades (without partners). You receive your cards, decide how many tricks you expect to take, and bid. The problem is that the bidding cannot add up to the number of tricks available. The last person to bid may not bid to make.

We’re going to show you how to play Help Your Neighbor! This is a card game (well, really a card and dice game) that is perfect to teach kids. It can be hard to find games that are equally fun for young kids as well as older kids and teens, and this one really fits the bill. I grew up playing this card game with my family when my grandparents came to visit.

Number of players: 4-8

Recommended ages: This game is great for ages 4 to 99! Seriously!

This game works with 3 players, and my kids will sometimes play it that way. But I think it’s more fun with at least 4. You can have any number of players from 4 to 8. I wouldn’t recommend it with more than 8, just because it would get a little crazy, and the wait for turns would be longer.

Here’s what you’ll need to play Help Your Neighbor:

  • 1-2 decks of cards. You’ll need one full suit for each player.
  • 2 dice
  • Poker chips – 15 for each player
  • A bowl to be the “pot” for the poker chips

Setting Up the Game

Remove the kings, aces, and 7’s from the deck. You won’t need the jokers either.

Each player will get 10 cards from the same suit. They should arrange them face up in front of them as shown below.

Each player will also get some poker chips. You can decide how many, and it depends on how long you want the game to last. I would recommend 10 for families with young kids, and 15 if you want your game to last longer. When we have played with 10 chips each, players are starting to be eliminated in round 2.

How to Play

Each player will put a chip in the pot to start the game.

The first player will roll the dice. Then they will flip over the card that matches the number rolled. Jacks are 11, Queens are 12.

Here’s the help your neighbor part! During game play, if a player rolls a number that they do not need (because that card is already flipped over), it will go to the next person who needs it, going clockwise around the table. This ends that player’s turn, and play resumes with the player who accepted the roll. The player who accepted the roll ALSO gets to roll and take their own turn.

As the game progresses, a player will likely roll a number that everyone has already flipped over. If that happens, they keep rolling until they get something that they can use, or someone else can use.

During game play, anyone who rolls a 7 puts a chip in the pot. This ends their turn.

The first person to turn over all of their cards wins! Each player puts a chip in the pot for every card left face up. Then the winner gets ALL the chips in the pot!

Then you can continue to round 2, etc. Once a player is out of poker chips, they are out of the game.

  2. This looks like fun! We are going to play after dinner.

    It would be awesome if you had a printable of the rules of the games on your site. ☺️

  3. So much fun! Modified the game a bit for preschoolers...only used cards 2-6, one die and if you rolled a 1 is when you put a chip in the pot. Also helped with manners...Thanks neighbor! You’re welcome!

  5. My family of six just played. We had a blast! All ages, 8 through 18, all had fun. Thanks so much, we will enjoy this one again!

  6. This would also be great for elders in a daycare setting because they usually have varying degrees of dementia. Most of them naturally gravitates towards helping one another out.

  7. When someone is rolling the dice do they continue to roll until there is nothing to turn over, or do they only roll one time and then pass the dice?

    1. If they roll a number that they need to turn over, then they turn the card over and pass the dice. If they roll a number that they don't need but someone else needs, then the turn goes to that person. They DO keep rolling if they roll a number that no one else at the table needs. I hope that helps!

  10. I remember playing at my grandparents house when I was growing up. I loved it. Of course my grandmother loved playing cards. I didn't realize this was on here and just needed a refresher course. Forgot about the chip part of it. Thanks for sharing. Love it.

    1. You don't put out the number 7 card, lay out 2 through king, but skip the 7. Whenever you roll a 7, you put a chip in the pot.

  12. Thanks for sharing! This is a game that I could have my students play to build our classroom community vibe!

  13. Oh, the fond memories of playing this as a kid with my extended family of all ages back in the 1950s and 1960s! It was a big hit for the 8-12 of us who opted to play it at the long dinner table after a Thanksgiving feast.

    I never forgot the fun nor the name of this game but I DID forget how to play it long ago and by then the older generation who did know how to play it had passed. So I'm very pleased to see this well-organized set of rules so I can play it again with extended family again someday!

    And we all did make sure to say 'Thank you, Neighbor' at the right time as noted in the third post. That was also fun to do because we kids could be creative in how we said that!

    Thank you so much!

  14. Say everyone only has one card left. Does the next person to roll keep rolling until they either win, roll someone else’s face card (in which case that person would win), or roll a 7?
