Egyptian Ratscrew is a fast-paced card game that is believed to have originated in the United States in the 20th century. It is typically played by two or more players using a standard deck of cards. The goal is to win all the cards by forming piles and slapping them when certain conditions are met. Players take turns placing cards face-up in the center. If two cards of the same rank appear next to each other, anyone can slap the pile to win it. Additionally, players must slap the pile if a face card or Ace is followed by another face card or Ace within a certain number of turns. The game continues until one player collects all the cards or the players decide to end the game. Egyptian Ratscrew is known for its quick play and requires good reflexes and attention.
