Rummikub game

The Game of RUMMIKUB

Rummikub tiles It is a fun game played with 106 tiles in total. These are numbered 1-13 in four different colours plus two jokers. Players take 14 tiles each and place them on their racks. The remaining tiles form the pool.

To start play, the players must have 30 or more points in one or more sets. Sets are made up of three or four tiles of the same number in different colours or a set of three or more consecutive numbers all in the same colour.

A player who is unable to lay a set of thirty points must continue to take a tile from the pool until he is able to start. After the initial play, players can build on other sets on the table. The player who empties his rack first is the winner.
