Description
Jungle Rummy: A gnu take on a classic card game [www.kickstarter.com]
Some 80 years ago, the Skippers of jungle boats were some of the bravest, most adventuring men who ever adventured. They were isolated from civilization and when they lost their only deck of cards, they had to improvise.
Taking used trip tickets, stamps, and jungle inks, they transformed tickets into handmade decks of cards. They remembered the rules to some of their favorite games: Hearts, Rummy, Uno, and they mashed them all up to create Jungle Rummy, the Game of the Jungle. With a little Skipper magic, and a few twists, this game was the favorite pastime of the 1930's in the depths of the Amazon, Congo and the River Nile.
**Jungle Rummy is a casual card game for 2-4 people, which takes elements of Hearts, Rummy, and Uno, and transforms them with a Jungle themed twist. The scoring system creates a set of constantly changing objectives, and the interaction between players can be frenzied and passionate.**
Want to learn the basics about Jungle Rummy, and how to play? Here's our explanation of the rules, aided by some archaic technology.
(This is the unboxing video that we made when we received our final prototype. We have a few more produced videos that will be going up soon.)

The first time we played this, we ended up playing for a few hours, and had a blast. The artwork is great, and the decks are pretty high quality stuff.
From one Skipper to another, this is perection. Thank you guys so much for bringing the jungle to life and making it a multiplayer, portable experience!
i finally found time for my family to sit down and we played. My son and I loved it, I knew we would, my friend had trouble at first getting the hang of it, she wanted it to be the way she is used to ...
My daughter and I have had so much fun playing this game. The artwork is beautiful and game play is easy to learn. Great family game or for game nights with your friends :)
