Which 1980s Card Game Uses Four Decks? Clarifying Crazy Eights

The game commonly associated with multiple decks is Crazy Eights. While traditionally played with one standard 52-card deck, it scales easily:

  • Multiple Decks: Adding decks supports more players (6+) and extends game length
  • 1980s Popularity: Crazy Eights was a household staple throughout the 80s and remains a classic shedding game

Other multi-deck games from the era include Canasta (typically two decks) and Spite and Malice (multiple decks), but Crazy Eights is the most widely recognized flexible-deck game.
