Phase 3: One Set of Four and One Run of Four – Players must collect one set of four cards and one run of four cards. For example, a set of three 5s and a run of four cards from 6 to 9. The set of three cards must have the same rank, and the run of four cards must be consecutive in rank. Phase 2: One Set of Three and One Run of Four – Players must collect one set of three cards and one run of four cards. Phase 1: Two Sets of Three – Players must collect two sets of three cards that have the same rank. Here is an overview of the ten phases in Phase 10: Phase 10 consists of ten phases, each with its own specific requirements that players must complete to progress to the next phase. The objective of Phase 10, therefore, is to strategically collect and play the required sets and runs to complete each phase and be the first player to complete all ten phases, ultimately achieving victory. If they do not, the player who completed the tenth phase wins the game. If they do, they continue to the next phase and play continues. At that point, all other players have one more turn to try to complete their current phase. The game continues until one player successfully completes the tenth phase. The other players then take turns trying to complete the same phase or the next phase if they have already completed the previous one. To complete a phase, a player must lay down the required sets or runs in front of them and then discard one card onto the discard pile. The specific requirements for each phase are listed on the Phase 10 instruction cards. For example, Phase 1 may require two sets of three cards, while Phase 2 may require one set of three cards and one run of four cards. In each phase, players must collect sets or runs of cards that fit specific criteria. The objective of Phase 10 is to be the first player to complete all ten phases and declare oneself the winner. Phase 10 is a card game that is played with a standard deck of cards and combines elements of rummy and strategy.
