How to play War
Objective
Win every card in the deck.
Setup
- The deck is split evenly between the two players, face down.
Rules
- Both players flip their top card at the same time.
- The higher card takes both; Aces are high.
- On a tie, each player lays three cards face down and one face up — the higher face-up card takes all ten.
- Play continues until one player holds all 52 cards.
Strategy tips
- There are no decisions — it's pure chance, which is part of the charm.
- A single won war can swing the entire game.
