Gin Rummy card game classic • Solo and Multiplayer • Smart bots • Thousands of people to play with • Play online with friends • Interactive tutorial • Free and no signup required! Play Gin Rummy to your heart's content with the official Gin Rummy card game app from World of Card Games. Pair up with people by joining one of our tables, play by yourself against our bots, or create a private table and invite your friends and family to play. Our game is free to play and no signup is required. The game's objective is to be the first person to reach 100 points. The aim of each player is to form melds, either as sets or runs and minimize deadwood cards in their hands. Cards are ranked from Ace, being worth 1 point, to 10, being worth 10 points. Face cards are worth 10 points as well. At the start of the game, each player is dealt 10 cards, and a single card is dealt face-up on the table. The two players take turns either picking up the face-up card or an unknown card from the deck. Once they've picked up a card, they must pick a card from their hand to discard. After discarding, if a player has 10 deadwood points or fewer on their hand, they're allowed to "knock". If the player chooses to do so, the knocker and their opponent have to show their cards, and the opponent may lay off deadwood cards against the knocker's melds. Points are given based on deadwood points, with bonuses given for undercutting, going gin and being the first to reach 100 points. When a player reaches 100 points, the game ends, and the final score is calculated based on the amount of points acquired, the winner's bonus and the line bonus. We're always open to suggestions, so feel free to reach out to us at https://worldofcardgames.com/gin-rummy with suggestions for improvements. === FEATURES: === Play against the computer using our bots If you're new to a game, playing against others can feel intimidating. We always suggest playing against the computer before playing against other people. Our intelligent bots should be challenging enough, even for experienced players. === Play against other people online We have a great community of card players. People are generally really nice to each other, and you can always find an open table to join. Just click List of Tables to find a table to your liking. === Play against friends or family at a private table Meeting fellow card game enthusiasts online is nice, but nothing beats a game against friends or family. Start a private table and let your friends know about the table name to get them to join. === Ranked games and global leaderboards If you're serious about your card games or have a competitive streak, ranked games are for you. These games are reserved for more series players and will only be accessible to you once you've signed up and played 10 games. Ranked players have a chance to end up on the daily leaderboard. === Custom design and avatars Change the background and card design to something that suits you better. With 160+ different avatars, you're sure to be able to find one to your liking. === Join ongoing games and chat with other players Click List of Tables to join an ongoing game.
