How to play

  1. Draw a card. On your turn take the top card from the face-down stock or pick up the visible discard if it helps build a meld.
  2. Meld and discard. Arrange your hand into sets (same rank) and runs (consecutive cards of one suit). Melded cards are highlighted automatically. Tap a card to discard and end your turn.
  3. Knock or go Gin. When your leftover deadwood totals ten or less you can knock to end the hand; zero deadwood is a Gin for a bonus. Score the difference in deadwood and race to 100 points to win.

About Rummy

Rummy is the classic draw-and-discard card game, and this is the popular Gin Rummy version played against the computer. You and the AI each hold ten cards. On your turn you draw the top card from the stock or take the visible discard, then throw one card away. The goal is to organise your hand into melds — sets of three or four cards of the same rank, and runs of three or more in sequence in one suit. The cards left over are your deadwood; when that total drops to ten or less you can knock to end the hand, and reaching zero deadwood is a Gin for a bonus. The game works out the best possible melds for you and highlights them. First to 100 wins. Pick a difficulty. No signup, no download.

Frequently asked questions

Each player holds ten cards. On your turn you draw from the stock or the discard pile, then discard one card. You try to form melds — sets of three or four of the same rank, and runs of three or more consecutive cards in one suit. When your unmatched cards (deadwood) total ten or less you can knock to end the hand and score.

A set is three or four cards of the same rank, such as three Sevens. A run is three or more cards in sequence within a single suit, such as the 5-6-7 of hearts. Aces are low. The game finds the best arrangement of your hand automatically and highlights the melded cards.

Knocking ends the hand when your deadwood — the value of cards not in any meld — is ten or less. Your opponent’s deadwood is then compared with yours: you score the difference, unless they have equal or less and undercut you, in which case they score the difference plus a bonus.

Gin is when every card in your hand forms part of a meld, leaving zero deadwood. You can’t be undercut on a Gin, and you earn a 25-point bonus on top of your opponent’s deadwood, so it’s the strongest way to win a hand.
