Play the classic Turkish tile game with beautiful graphics and different tile sorting options. Okey Royal brings you an experience similar to the card game Gin Rummy. Play the 4 player game with multi-touch controls and try to beat your opponents! - How To Play - Tile sorting Rules: Create sets of at least 3 tiles that follow the rules below: • Tiles that are the same color (blue) in ascending order (1-2-3...) • Tiles that are the same color (blue) in descending order (3-2-1...) • Tiles that are all different colors but the same number (red 12 - blue 12 - black 12) • You can add a 1 right after an ordered set that ends with 13 if they are the same color (Yellow 12 - Yellow 13 - Yellow 1). But you cannot continue with 2 or 3. • A blank tile is a joker tile meaning you can use is as whichever tile you want • A tile with a star on it is 1 plus the indicator tile in the middle. If the indicator tile is a red 8, the star tile is a red 9 • You can use the different sort buttons next to the tile board to automatically order your tiles Game Rules: • Collect the last tile that the player on the left discarded or take one from the middle. Then discard any tile you wish. • The game ends when you discard a tile onto the tile pile in the middle and if you have sets of tiles that follow the game’s rules. • 1 point is deducted from everyone when you win the game. 2 points are deducted from everyone when you win the game by discarding the joker tile. 1 point is deducted from everyone at the start of a round if a player is dealt the indicator tile. • There are 2 of each tile in the game with a total of 106 tiles: Red, yellow, black and blue tiles numbered from 1 to 13, and star tiles. • The game ends when a player has no points left and the player with the most points at that time wins. • You can select how many points you want everyone to start from at the start of the game. Features: • 6 starting point options to choose from • 4 automatic tile ordering modes • Control the animation speed and enable/disable sort buttons • Your game will be automatically saved so you can continue when you reopen the game • Global leaderboards with Game Center Enjoy!

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Okey Royal at Free against Okey's $0.99. Okey Royal also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). Okey's advantage is rating (3.8 vs 1.0) and ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
