  • Patent number: 5409237
    Abstract: A word rummy game includes two different decks of cards. The first deck includes a plurality of playing cards with each card having two sides with a letter on one side. Words are provided to each player while keeping these words secret from other players. This is accomplished through the use of a different second deck of mystery word cards. Every player then receives a predetermined number of letter playing cards and one mystery word card from the dealer while each player keeps his cards hidden from other players. Each individual player then uses his letter playing cards to form the given words on the word card. The first individual to match all of his letters to his given words wins the game.
