At rumgameindia.com, we offer a diverse selection of Rummy variants to match every preference and skill level. Discover our most popular formats below:
Points Rummy is a fast-paced, point-bet variant where each player aims to arrange their 13 cards into valid sequences and sets; the first valid declaration ends the round and earns you a win, while unmatched cards count as penalty points.
Pool Rummy is played between 2–6 players in elimination style: the first to reach a preset point threshold (61, 101 or 201) is knocked out, and play continues until one survivor remains.
Deals Rummy features a fixed number of rounds (deals). Each player starts with a stack of chips; at the end of all deals, the player holding the most chips wins the match.
Gin Rummy is a two-player matching game where each player tries to form melds—sets or runs—from a hand of 10 cards, then “knock” or “go Gin” to end the round and score based on deadwood differences.
Kalooki (or Kaluki) is a lively 3–8 player variant from Jamaica, using multiple decks and jokers; players complete contracts of sets and runs over nine deals to minimize cumulative score.
Canasta is a classic partnership variant using two decks plus jokers; teams form melds of seven cards (“canastas”) and go out to score points, blending strategy and teamwork.
