Experience the thrill of Rummy 500, a captivating card game available offline! This version, also known as Persian Rummy, Pinochle Rummy, 500 Rum, or 500 Rummy, offers a unique twist on classic Rummy. Unlike traditional Rummy, players can draw multiple cards from the discard pile, adding a strategic layer to gameplay.
Points are awarded for melding cards, while penalties are incurred for unmelded cards (deadwood) remaining in your hand at the end of a round.
Key Gameplay Rules:
- Players: 2-4 players
- Deck: One standard deck with jokers
- Starting Hand: 7 cards per player
- Objective: Reach 500 points first. The highest-scoring player wins, even if multiple players reach the target.
- Melding: Form sets (3-4 cards of the same rank) and sequences (3 or more cards of the same suit in order). Card values determine scoring within melds.
- Turns: Draw a card, then discard a card. Players can also meld or add to existing melds (building).
- Jokers: Wild cards, usable as any card.
- Discard Pile: You can take one or more cards, but must use the last discarded card immediately in a meld.
- Card Values: Royalty cards (J, Q, K) are worth 10 points each. Aces are 11 points in a meld, but incur a 15-point penalty if held at the end of a round. Jokers take the value of the card they replace, plus a 15-point penalty if held.
- Rounds & Scoring: The game consists of multiple rounds, with scores accumulating until a player reaches 500 points. Ties result in a playoff.
