Product Information

For example, if there is a run of 3, 4, 5 in blue you can add a blue 2, and a blue 6 to continue the set. You can manipulate the sets on the board any way you like, as long as you end up with complete sets at the end of your turn. For example- suppose in a game player A wins, player B has a score of 5, player C has a score of 10 and player D a score of 3. An important feature of the game is that players can move and reuse the tiles that have already been placed on the table.

Players have 14 or 16 tiles initially and take turns putting down tiles from their racks into sets (groups or runs) of at least three, drawing a tile if they cannot play. If blue 6, red 6, and yellow 6 are already a group, the player may add the black 6 and remove any one of the other three for use elsewhere. However, you can replace the joker with the appropriate tile, and then use the joker in another set. Oh, and just one more thing; the longest new word on the table has to include at least one tile from your rack (or more if you can manage it – using all the tiles on your rack in one turn get double points!Ultimately, if you love word games where you can meddle and mess with other players’ efforts, but not in a way that feels overly restrictive, then Rummikub Word could be a good addition to your collection! In the Sabra version (the most common and popular), the first player to use all their tiles scores a positive score based on the total of the other players' hands, while the losers get negative scores. Removing tiles So long as the remaining tiles form a valid run, tiles can be removed from the ends of runs.

The color doesn't affect the number, so a blue 11 is worth the same amount of points as an orange 11. But of course, they can also be re-used by other players if they can swap it for the letter, it currently represents. This online board game requires matching and strategy skills, and is fun for kids and adults to play. You can make a group of 2s, a group of 3s, a group of 4s, a run of "1, 2, 3" in blue (with tiles from your hand) and a group of 5s (with more tiles from your hand).For instance, if there's a run of "3, 4, 5" in blue, you can add a blue 2, a blue 1 and 2, a blue 6, a blue 6 and 7, a blue 2 and 6, etc. Players may not make their initial meld and along with that play on groups and runs during the same turn.
