Meldhaven Gin Rummy: Classic

Meldhaven Gin Rummy: Classic is a two-player gin rummy game against computer rivals. Draw from the stock or take the discard, arrange your cards into sets and runs, keep your deadwood low and choose the moment to knock. Rule sets: • Classic Gin Rummy: hands played to 100 points, a knock limit of 10 deadwood points, a bonus for gin and for an undercut. Included from the start. • Oklahoma Gin (Parlour Rules): the upcard sets the knock limit for the hand, and an ace upcard means gin only. A spade upcard doubles the scores for that hand. • Hollywood Scoring (Parlour Rules): three games are scored at once. Your first win goes into Game 1, your second into Games 1 and 2, and later wins into all open games. • Straight Gin (Parlour Rules): no knocking. Play on until someone makes gin, or big gin with 11 cards. • Quick Play: pick the rule set and one of 6 rival skill levels. Solo play: • Tearoom Ladder: 12 matches against 12 rivals, from Pip to Corin, in four venues (Lantern Tearoom, Harbour Reading Room, Orchard Pavilion, Observatory Parlour). Rivals get stronger as you climb, and each match gives up to 3 stars, 36 in all. • Daily Deal: one curated hand each calendar day against Wren at Level 4, worth 1 to 3 stars. If you want another go, a second deal is available as an optional video. • Puzzles: 180 discard and knock-or-wait puzzles in four tiers: Starter, Skilled and Expert (120 in all) are free, and the 60 Master puzzles come with the Parlour Rules pack. Each has an explanation. • Lessons: 5 interactive lessons on sets and runs, drawing and discarding, deadwood and knocking, gin and undercuts, and game scoring. • Statistics for each rule set. Look and feel: • A deck with large rank indices and an optional four-colour suit palette. Melds are bracketed and labelled Run or Set on your hand, and Auto-arrange can sort your cards for you. • Tap cards to draw, take and discard. Optional one-tap discard, fast game speed, sound effects, music, haptics and reduced motion, each in Settings. • Table collection: 6 card backs (Harbour Lattice from the start, Ember Chevron after 12 ladder stars, and four more with the Parlour Rules pack) and 6 felts (Parlour Green from the start, Midnight Blue after 24 stars, and Mulberry, Deep Teal, Slate and Saffron with the pack). • Deals are shuffled from a seed on your device, and the rivals play from what they could see at the table. Parlour Rules (one-time purchase) unlocks: • Oklahoma Gin, Hollywood Scoring and Straight Gin. • 60 Master puzzles. • 4 more card backs: Ivy Trellis, Harbour Waves, Compass Rose and Quilted Diamond. • 4 more felts: Mulberry, Deep Teal, Slate and Saffron. The game contains ads and offers in-app purchases. A full-screen ad called Deal break can appear only when you leave a game result screen (including the daily deal) or leave the Puzzles screen, and never between hands. It never appears before your fourth finished game or puzzle, and never less than 120 seconds after the last ad. Undo discard, Hint (up to 3 a day) and Daily second deal are optional rewarded videos that play only when you choose them. Remove Ads is a one-time purchase that removes the Deal break ads; the rewarded offers stay. Parlour Rules is a one-time purchase that does not remove ads. The game works offline. The internet is used only for ads and for purchases through Google Play. It is for players aged 18 and over. No pay-to-win, no chips, no fake currency.
