8 the Liar is a bluffing game in which the first player to get rid of his cards wins. Each hand played must add up to eight, and a player can play as many cards as he wishes during his turn. The cards are played face-down, however, allowing each player the opportunity to bluff by playing an illegal hand. Each player also has three liar chips that allow him to call another player's bluff. Players must use all of their cards as well as well as their chips in order to win.
