War
This game requires two players and a complete deck of regular playing cards.

The dealer deals all the cards into two piles, face down.

The person who did not deal lays a card, face up, on the table. (You do NOT look at your cards, just pull them off the top of the stack that the dealer dealt you.) The other person does the same thing. The person with the highest card (aces are high, twos are low), win and takes the two cards and places them in another pile next to the pile he's already using. If you run out of cards from the one stack, you start using the other, still face down, still without looking at them. DO NOT shuffle them!

If each of you turn over a card with the same value on it, that's WAR! Each player places two cards, face down, and each of you turn over a third card. Whoever has the highest card, wins ALL of the cards.

Uh-oh, you did it again! You each turned over the same card again? That's okay, you just lay two more cards down, face down, and turn over a third card. The winner is the person with the highest card.

The winner is the one that ends up with all of the cards at the end of the game. OR, if in a WAR situation, doesn't have enough cards to settle it.

GO FISH
This game is played by two to five people, and requires one regular deck of playing cards.

The dealer deals all of the cards to the players, plus one additional, this is the "fishing pool".

If any player has all four of any one value (for example, 4 - 4's) then they lay them down. When all of the players have laid down all of the sets that they have, the game starts.

The person to the left of the dealer starts. That person turns to the person on their left and asks them if they have a card (i.e., a 2), in order to ask for a card, you must be holding one of that same value. If the person has the card that you asked for, you get to ask again. If the person doesn't have the card that you asked for, then you are told to Go Fish!. To do that, you must draw a card from the Fishing Pool. If it is the card that you were asking for, you can continue your turn. If it isn't, then it is the next persons turn.

The game continues until one player has no cards left in their hand.
