Skyjo Action*

A new version of Skyjo introduces action cards and jokers. Each player has 12 cards arranged in a 3x4 grid, with two cards face up and the rest face down. Players can take the top card from either the discard or draw pile, swap it with a card from their tableau, or discard it to reveal another card. The round ends when a player has only face-up cards, and the points are calculated to determine the winner.

Skyjo Action adds special action cards that allow for unique plays, such as exchanging cards with opponents or stealing cards. Jokers simplify set collection and can create valuable sets worth -10 or -15 points. New rules also allow complete rows of identical cards to be discarded.
