Wooden Cribbage Set with Cards

Cribbage, or crib, is a card game traditionally for two players, but commonly played with three, four or more, that involves playing and grouping cards in combinations which gain points.

Cribbage has several distinctive features: the cribbage board used for score-keeping, the eponymous crib, box, or kitty (in parts of Canada) a separate hand counting for the dealer, two distinct scoring stages (the play and the show) and a unique scoring system including points for groups of cards that total fifteen.

It has been characterized as "Britain's national card game" .
