3. colonel,

Okey comes in several variations, but the most common types include:

  1. Traditional Okey: Played with a set of 106 tiles, including numbers from 1 to 13 in four different colors (black, red, blue, and yellow), along with two joker tiles. Each tile appears twice in the set.
  2. Düz Okey: Similar to traditional Okey but without the joker tiles, using only the numbered tiles.
  3. 101 Okey: A variant with 106 tiles, where players aim to form sets and runs just like in traditional Okey.
  4. Türk Okey: Another variant that includes joker tiles but differs slightly in the rules and the arrangement of the tiles.
  5. Gameplay Overview
    Objective: The objective of Okey is to be the first player to complete a hand with sets (three or four of a kind) and runs (three or more consecutive numbers of the same color), using a combination of tiles drawn and discarded throughout the game.
    Setup: Players are typically seated around a table with the tiles shuffled face down. Each player receives a set number of tiles (usually 14) to start.
    Turns:
    Players take turns drawing a tile from the pool or picking up the last discarded tile.
    After picking up a tile, players must discard one tile to maintain a hand of the designated number (usually 14).
    Jokers: Joker tiles can substitute any other tile to complete a set or run.
    Ending the Game: The game ends when a player completes a hand with all tiles in valid sets and runs. The remaining players calculate points based on the tiles left in their hands.

4. Aminiel,

Hello,

At first glance, this game seem to be rummy with minor variations.

Can you clarify if it's indeed some variation of rummy that might be included in the existing game ?

If it's a completely different game, it doesn't look obvious in your explanations, so please clarify as well or post a link to complete rules.
