In the case of two players completing the last phase in the same hand, the player with the lowest score out of the tied players is the winner. The object of the game is to be the first person to complete all ten phases. In December 2010, Fundex sold the rights to Phase 10 to Mattel, and now develops and markets a line of games based on brands and other IP formerly exclusive to Mattel as well as Fundex's own brands. Phase 10 was Fundex's best selling product, selling over 32,600,000 units to date, making it the 2nd best-selling commercial card game behind Mattel's Uno. The game is named after ten phases (or melds) that a player must advance through in order to win. It requires a special deck or two regular decks of cards it can be played by two to six people. Phase 10 is based on a variant of rummy known as Liverpool Rummy, and is a member (along with Liverpool) of the contract rummy family. Phase 10 is a card game created in 1982 by Kenneth Johnson and sold by Mattel, which purchased the rights from Fundex Games in 2010.
