Developing Board Game - Rummikub

Rummikub — is a classic of world games. It has been around for about a hundred years, and people still play it enthusiastically. Because the rules are simple, the games are engaging, and in addition, it trains reaction speed and logic. «Rummikub. A Good Start» — is the same game, but slightly simplified so that children aged 4 to 7 can master and love it. At first, you can practice — laying out a row of numbers in order or collecting a group of the same. Then you can play one of the three variants of Rummikub. What has been changed for children:

• Here the tokens have numbers from 1 to 10. If counting to 10 is still difficult, you can use the tokens to practice.
• Each number has its own figure. This makes it easier to remember and distinguish. Plus, you can play without having learned to count to 10 yet.
• The tokens are also marked with small hint symbols. When a row is composed correctly, the symbols in the corners match.
• There are three game variants. You can play with jokers or without. Or you can try the version for true masters, the most challenging one.

It is easy to play. You need to form combinations: rows where numbers of one color go in order, or groups of identical numbers of different colors. At first, you simply lay out a combination in front of you that you can, and then you add to the combinations of other players. The main thing is to be the first to get rid of all your tokens. Whoever lays them all out first wins!
