Difference between Rummy and Rummikub onlineRummy

Rummy is a traditional card game with many variants, such as Gin Rummy or Indian Rummy and is played with one or two standard decks of cards. And Rummikub is a modern board game that was created in the 1940s by Ephraim Hertzano. It is played with numbered tiles instead of cards and combines elements of the card games Rummy and Mahjong.

So, one of the differences is the components or what it is played with. While Rummy is played with cards or playing cards and the use of jokers may vary depending on the variant, Rummikub is played with numbered colored tiles. In addition, each player has a plastic holder in which to organize his or her pieces. And there is a joker piece that can replace any number.

Also, the objective of the game is different, in Rummy you have to form combinations of cards, such as trios or straights, i.e. either three cards of the same number of different suits, or sequences of cards of the same suit. And the winner is the one who gets rid of all cards first. And in Rummikub you have to form sets (groups of the same number in different colors) or straights (sequences of the same color). So it is necessary to use all the cards in your hand.

Regarding the mechanics of the game, in Rummy players draw cards from a deck and discard them to make the allowed combinations, in Rummikub you can rearrange the combinations with tiles that are already on the table. This is what makes this game really fun.
