9 Lives
NEW
Counting to 9 has never been this high stakes! Take turns adding numbered cards on the pile. As the total grows closer to 9, blindside other players by throwing down special action cards that force them to bust. Then you get to steal their cards and add them to your score pile. Most points by the end of the deck wins!
What's In the Box?
Nine Lives comes with:
- Numbered playing cards
- Special action cards, Reverse, Skip, New Total, and Super steal.
Plus, one instruction manual that you will probably skim.

This game is awesome! I’ve already played it with multiple different groups of people and it works for all ages. Favorite things about the game: it’s playable with kids, VERY easy to learn/teach, each game is quick, and it’s really fun. Highly recommend the game!

We played several rounds of Nine Lives with three players and had a good time with it. The video instructions were especially helpful for getting started, and the card reference for the special action cards is something we kept coming back to during play.
The game is challenging without being frustrating, although we occasionally tripped ourselves up over the difference between “New total is zero” and “+0” when calling out numbers. That actually became part of the fun, but it definitely helps to have at least one person keeping an eye on the math.
Overall, it’s clever, quick to learn once you see it in action, and has enough twists to keep multiple rounds interesting. 4/5 stars.
- JDJeremy D.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 starsYesterdayFun and easy!
This is a very fun and easy to learn game. Some of the group was nervous about having to add quickly, but after a few turns everyone realized it wasn’t difficult in the least. The turns are pretty quick, and leads to a lot of laughs. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a simple game to play to start off game night, or just to have when you want to play an easy game that doesn’t take a lot of time or effort.

This game is great, been playing with my 6 year old every night since we got it. Fast passes, easy to learn , lots of fun!
- JRJustin R.Rated 5 out of 5 stars2 days agoSuper fun and easy!
I love the fact that this game is so easy practically anyone can play! It even serves as an education game for young players. Once you get the hang of the modifier cards it's straight forward and a quick game. Great for parties of all ages, so long as you can count to nine! The only downside is that there's no art by Matthew Inman, which takes the score down a smidge but still 5 stars!
