Product Information

During a player's turn, sets of tiles that have already been played may be manipulated to allow more tiles to be played. At the end of the turn, all played tiles must be in valid sets.

Players may not make their initial meld and along with that play on groups and runs during the same turn. They can play on runs and groups after the turn of making the initial meld. It also feels more relaxed and chilled out than its numeric counterpart. Although, having said that, you can ramp up the challenge by setting a timer per turn, or even theming a game so that only certain words can be played and/or scored. Players may play tiles by amending sets already in play. The only limit to the length of a run is the extremes of the tile values. Groups are limited to four because colors may not repeat within a group. Games magazine included the game as Rummy-O II in their "Top 100 Games of 1980", noting the appeal of playing with tiles rather than cards for "the sound of snapping them onto the table when making a strong play".
