Go Fish Rules:
Go Fish is a simple game that is popular with children (my 6 year old son for example). There are many variations of it, the rules here describe how it works on this website. It may not be exactly the way you are used to playing.
Objective:
To collect as many "books" as possible. A book is four cards of the same rank. The player with the most books at the end of the game wins.
Dealing and setup
The game can be played by 2 - 4 players. First cards are dealt to the players, if there are 2 players then each gets 7 cards, if there are 3 players then each gets 6 cards and if there are 4 players then each gets 5 cards. Once the dealing is done the rest of the deck is put in a random pile on the table.
Asking and fishing:
The initial player is selected at random. The player can then ask one of the other players for a particular rank. For example, you might ask Bill if he has any sixes. You may only ask for ranks that you already have at least one card of. E.g. if you don't have any sixes yourself you can't ask for them. If Bill has any sixes, then he must give them to you, and you get another turn and can ask again. If Bill doesn't have any sixes then he will tell you to "Go Fish" which means that you will draw one card from the pile on the table. If you get a six, then you show it to the other players and get to play again. If you get anything else you are finished with your turn and the player next to you plays.
Scoring:
If you have 4 of the same rank then you show the cards to the other players, and then place the four cards in a pile next to you. This is called a book. The player with the most books at the end of the game wins.
Drawing new cards
It can happen that you finish all the cards in your hand, either because someone else asked you for the last cards that you had, or you just got a book made up of your last four cards. If you have no cards then you can draw new cards from the pile on the table, the same number of cards as you got at the start of the game.
If there are three or four players then it can happen that one of them finishes their cards and there are no cards left in the pile for him to draw. In that case he is out of the game and will simply have to wait while the remaining players finish the game.
Strategy:
Not much to say here. Just watch what the other players are asking for so you can know what cards they definitely have. If you're playing with more than two players make sure to pay attention to what the other players ask each other for and what they say Go Fish too, that way you can learn which cards they definitely have and which cards they definitely don't have.

Its my turn and then I try to ask someone for a card but it says it is not your turn and then nobody else takes a turn so it must be my turn but I cant take my turn when it is my turn and also there are too many ads that pop up on my screen witch is EXTREMELY annoying

It started out fun even though I didn't win but I was about to because it was my last card and the other player had three and it was my turn and I tapped on him and it said its not your turn and stayed like that and nobody was going.

I tried it at first and hated it. I also wonder why it has you instead of your real name. Also ads keep on popping up when I tried to write this and how bad it is and why you should not try this. It must hate me . I tried this for less than a minute and a ad popped up. Do not try this. PS:It is really STUPID

This game works perfect for me. Only thing that is a turn off for me is the constant having to knock them out. Making it not so fun.

Game play is fun. You have more control than in other Go Fish Games. But there are pop up ads and the interface is quite small.
