Rummikub

Have you heard of a board game called Rummikub? I have and it is enjoyable but challenging.

Rummikub is a game that is fun to play. In every board game there are rules right? This one has rules and these rules are you can only pick up fourteen tiles. If you are going to put something down it has to be three or more tiles that are the same colour and different numbers. For example 2,3,4,5 that are all the same colour. Or three or four tiles that are different colours but same number. For example 7 black 7 blue and 7 red.

There are only two joker tiles. With these joker tiles you can replace them for a number. Like if you were to have two numbers that were the same and different colour like 7 black 7 blue then you can place the joker tile next to one of the 7 tiles and it will replace a red 7 or a orange 7. Only four people can play this game.

How do you win you may ask? Well you can only win by placing all your tiles on the floor.

Playing Rummikub is awesome as it helps me to learn how to problem solve by splitting numbers and putting them in order. The only downside is that Rummikub is a hard game to find in stores because it is an old game.
