Rummikub Six Player Edition

Overview

Placing numbered tiles into runs of consecutive numbers in one color, or groups of the same number in different colors, is how this rummy-style game plays. Extra racks and tiles bring the player count up in a tin.

More tiles and racks make a bigger table practical, which is the reason to choose this edition over a smaller box. The limit is that the listing is vague on pack count and says nothing about compatibility with other editions.

Who it's for

Game nights with a table of up to six, and players who enjoy strategy and planning. Pairs who play only the two-person version, or buyers expecting expansions for another set, may prefer a smaller edition.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The game rewards planning, since players build runs and groups on the table and then rearrange tiles to play the full rack. More players mean fewer tiles each early on, and play slows as the table fills.
