Photo Rummy 2000

An old favorite in a new disguise. The rules of Rummy are the same, but the material now consists of photo cards instead of tiles with numbers or letters. The photos come from the countries of the European Union. The cards must be laid out either by categories (set) or country (row). Categories include Palaces or Parliamentary Buildings, Churches, Sights, Symbols, National Delicacies, and Letter boxes, all marked by pictograms for easy identification. Allocation for countries is done with the country identification in the upper left corner. In his move a player must draw a card from the pile and then if possible he can lay out cards, either a group of four by category or a group of three by country. Cards already laid out can be used or rearranged by all players.
