The object is to rid oneself of the cards in one's hand by melding and by rearranging existing melds to accommodate one's cards. Set up: Deal seven cards to each player. Place the remaining cards face-down on the table as a draw pile. When playing Rummy with two, three, or four players, each player gets ten cards; when playing with five players, each player gets six cards. With more than five players, you must use two decks of cards and a hand of seven cards. The two-player game can also be played with seven cards each.

Introduction

Rummy refers to a large family of card games with a very interestinghistory and evolution. Rummy games are played all overthe world, mostly in social or family groups, but also in competitive andgambling environments. Not only are there the more or less well knownRummy-like games listed here (and many that are not,) but most will have commonlyused alternate rules or game variations that some groups use when playing. Rummyis one of those things where just about anybody will find some game or variationthat appeals to them.

If you are not yet familiar with any Rummy or Rummy-like games, be sure to readthe Rummy Basics page first, where you can learn more about the thingsthat are common across most Rummy games, and also learn some of the terminologyused in most of the games.

Basic Rummy Games

This group of games have similar concepts and rules, and one of these is oftenwhat one thinks of when somebody says the name 'Rummy.' The aim is simply toform your whole hand into Sets or Runs, as soon as possible. When someonesucceeds in this and goes out, the other players may lose a fixed amount, or maybe penalized according to the number of unmelded cards they have left.

• Three Thirteen (North America)

Conquian Games

Conquian is generally regarded as the earliest form of Rummy. The objective, asin other Rummy games, is to complete a hand consisting entirely of validcombinations. Quickbooks pos v9 crack. However, the draw and discard mechanism is somewhat different.Cards drawn from the stock or taken from the discard pile are never added to aplayer's hand, they must be melded or discarded.

Contract Rummy Games

The object is the same as in Standard Rummy, but in each round, eachplayer's first meld has to conform to a predetermined contract. Generally, thecontract becomes more difficult through a series of rounds.

• Contract Rummy

• Other Contract-like Games

  • Caribbean Kalooki
  • South African Kalookie
  • Telefunken

Manipulation Rummy Games

Again the aim is to get rid of all your cards by melding them. The distinctivefeature of these games is that when melding, you are also allowed to rearrangethe existing melds on the table to form new melds incorporating cards you addfrom your hand.

• Carousel

• Machiavelli

Knock Rummy Games

In these games, you do not necessarily have to form all your cards into sets togo out. You go out when you think that the value of your unmatched cards (thedeadwood) is less than that of the other players. If you are correct you win,but if another player can do better you are penalized.

• Gin Rummy

  • Cutthroat Gin (3 players)
  • Chouette Gin (3+ players)
  • Battle Royal Gin (3 players)
  • Partnership Gin (4+ players)

• Other Knock Style Games

  • Rumino

Meld Scoring Games

In this type of game positive points are scored for melds. There is still anadvantage in going out, but it is also necessary to consider gaining points bymaking valuable melds.

• Indonesian Remi
• Banakil (Jordan, Palestine, Syria and Lebanon)
• Mille
• Arlington

Canasta Games

This is a particular type of Meld Scoring Rummy with special bonuses for meldsof seven cards, known as Canastas.

  • Canasta for Two
  • Canasta for Three
  • Canasta for Five
  • Canasta for Six

Games for kids

Many Rummy games are suitable for kids to master and enjoy. I remember playingStandard Rummy with my Grandma when I was quite young, (around 7 or 8)and it was a great experience. A few games here at the Rummy Rulebook are simpleenough that they can be learned by even younger children, and they have beencollected in this group for easy access. For example, my 4 year oldgranddaughter won the first game of Tres y Dos that we played, with onlya little help.

Cabo is a 2010 card game by Melissa Limes that involves memory and manipulation.^[1] The game uses a dedicated deck of cards with each suit numbered from 1 to 13, and certain numbers being marked as 'Peek', 'Spy' or 'Swap'. The objective of the game is for each player to minimize the sum of his or her cards, four of which are played face-down to the table at the start of a round. Face-down cards may be revealed and swapped by card effects.

Cabo combines elements from shedding and matching type card games. It is similar to the traditional card game Golf and the 1995 Mensa Select award-winner Rat-a-Tat Cat.

Cabo can also be played with a standard playing card deck,^[2] and goes under names including Cambio, Pablo and Cactus.^[3]

Gameplay[edit]

Each player is dealt 4 cards, face down. After each deal, players may peek at any 2 of their own cards.

In clockwise order, players do either of three things:^[4]

• pick a card from the draw pile, and either keep the card (placing one of their own cards on the discard pile) or discard it (if the card drawn and discarded is a choice card, the choice card can be used if so desired).
• pick a card from the discard pile and place one of their own cards on the discard pile
• call 'Cabo'

Whenever a player discards cards from their hand, they may discard any number of cards of the same rank. Z transform table. If a player discards all of their cards they are considered safe and their value can not move from 0.^[1] If a player draws then discards a 'choice' card, they may choose to use its ability, as follows:^[4]

• 7 or 8: the player may 'peek' at one of their own cards^[5]
• 9 or 10: 'spy' on one of another player's cards
• 11 or 12: swap any two cards on the table, of any player

When a player calls cabo, the other players each get one more turn and then everyone has to turn their hidden cards face-up, and lay down the cards from their hand. The player with the lowest score wins.^[6]

Editions and variants[edit]

The second edition of Cabo, published by Bezier Games, was published in April 2019. It includes changes such as new artwork, modified rules, a scorepad, and four player reference cards. Rules modifications include:

• Plays 2–4 players (instead of 2–5)
• Cards taken from the discard pile remain face up for the rest of the game (instead of always keeping cards face down)
• Penalty for non-matching cards: Keep all cards including the one drawn — one more per additional cards that do not match (instead of no penalty)
• 10 point penalty for missing a cabo call (instead of 5)
• All players score the sum of their points; if the caller has (or is tied for) the lowest sum, they get 0 points (instead of the lowest player always receiving 0 points)
• The round ends after a call or when the deck runs out (instead of just when Cabo is called)
• Limit of one reset to 50 when your score = 100 exactly (instead of unlimited resets) ^[7]

Silver[edit]

In August 2019, Bezier Games released Silver, a variant with additional rules modifications and a werewolf theme. Changes include:
