A variation of Fan Tan. 54 cards; 1-9 in 5 colours / 3 'joker cards' / 6 'give or take 2 cards'. On a turn, a player either plays a card or draws a card. Played cards are placed on the table next to previously placed cards. The new card has to be of an immediately higher or lower value and of the same suit, or it has to be of the same value and from another suit. Players can only play 1 card per turn. A joker card can be played at any time and at any place while a 'give or take 2 card' (used to have another player take 1 or 2 extra cards or to remove 1 or 2 cards from the table) can be played at any time except as a player's last card. When a 'give or take 2 card' is played it goes back into the stack of cards and the stack is shuffled again. The first player to have no card left wins.
