==Overview==

Phase 10 cards ....

==Card Descriptions==

There are 3 card types and 4 card colors.
* Cards
** Numbers
** Wild
** Skip
* Colors
** Red
** Blue
** Green
** Yellow

==Setup==

The cards are shuffled into the general deck by the dealer at the beginning of the game. The phase 10 deck is large, so a subset is recommended to play with.

==Rules==

===Ranked Cards===
Unless otherwise specified, Numbered cards from a Phase 10 card deck have a rank equal to their number. (The red 5 has a rank of five; the green 12 has a rank of twelve.)

Numbered cards of the same color in a player's final five-card hand are added together and then squared.
If you're playing with the [[Uno]] expansion, Uno cards of the same color are added to this total. 
* Example: the hand (Diamond 10, Phase10 Green 9, Clubs King, Phase10 Green 1, Uno Green 5)
** Greens are added together then raised
** (9+1+5)^2 = 225
** Now apply the rest of the base game scoring
** (225+10(diamond)) x 4(king) = 940

===Special Effect Cards===
====Wild====
A wild card is equal to the highest rank in a player's final five-card hand, and is any color.

* Example: the hand (Diamond 10, Phase10 Green 9, Wild, Phase10 Green 1, Uno Green 5)
** Wild takes the rank of 10 from the 10 of Diamonds
** Wild is any color, so it can be added to Green
** (9+10(wild)+1+5)^2 = 625
** Now apply the rest of the base game scoring
** 625+10(diamond) = 635

# Dealt as the Pants card:
#* Any multiplier card that does not have a rank becomes rank 10 and is any color for that round.

====Skip====
# Dealt to a player as one of their Pit cards:
#* the player must immediately reveal it and fold.
# Dealt as either the Knuckle card or in the Flaps:
#* betting is skipped and the next round in play proceeds to either the Flaps or the Pants.
#  Dealt as the Pants card:
#* Each player loses one card of their choice from their Pit.

===Combos===
* If all cards in a player's final five-card hand are the same color, the hand gets a x10 multiplier.
* If two Skip cards show up in the community cards, the round ends and the pot is split evenly.
