Turkish Rummy (Okey) can be found on the street corner, in the pub, and anywhere else men gather to drink, talk and chew tabbaca! It is closely related to Romanian Tile Rummy and other games of the Rummy family,from where it probably originated.
Of all the Rummy games, these two are perhaps the oldest and are enjoying a resurgence in popularity today.
There are eight tiles of each number: two red, two yellow, two green and two black. In addition there are two special, tiles without numbers - these are known in this game as "false jokers" (in Turkish "sahte okey"). The backs of the tiles are plain, so tiles that are face down on the table or held by another player all look the same.
One 6-sided die is used during the distribution of tiles. Okey is almost always played by four players, although it is possible for two or three people to play. The whole game is played anticlockwise. During the game each player has a hand of 14 tiles.
The object is, by drawing and discarding tiles, to be the first to form a hand that consists entirely of sets of equal numbered tiles, and runs of consecutive tiles of the same colour.
2-4 players ages 12 to adult.
Attache case measures 35.5cm. The tiles are 3.5cm by 2.5cm.
