Just Gin Rummy Game
Premium classic card game
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Just Gin Rummy Game is the card game your grandfather played, done right for your phone and iPad. No ads. No in-app purchases. No accounts. No virtual currency. Just Gin Rummy, the way it should be.
WHY THIS GIN RUMMY
Most gin rummy apps on the App Store are dated, cluttered, and pad out the experience with virtual chips, daily rewards, and pop-ups. Just Gin Rummy Game strips all of that away. Open it, deal, play.
The cards are photorealistic. The animations are smooth. The sound is crisp — every deal, flip, knock, and gin has its own audio cue. Haptics respond to every action. The felt table works in portrait or landscape on both iPhone and iPad.
Under the hood, a real optimizer computes the best meld partition of every hand, so you always see your true deadwood — no guessing whether that run-plus-set arrangement is really optimal.
FEATURES
• Standard 100-point match Gin Rummy against a smart AI opponent
• Three difficulty levels: Casual, Standard, Sharp — each with different discard and knock strategy
• Three speed settings: Fast, Normal, Slow
• Authentic first-turn upcard offer — non-dealer then dealer each get a shot at the upcard before stock draws start
• Photorealistic cards and a premium felt table
• Live deadwood counter showing your current and post-discard deadwood
• Auto-highlighted melds — the app shows you the optimal partition of your hand in real time
• Smooth staggered deal, draw, and discard animations
• Full sound effects and haptics — mute anytime
• Runs in portrait or landscape on iPhone and iPad with adaptive layout
• Complete scoring: knock, gin with +25 bonus, undercut with +25 and laid-off cards
• Knock confirmation prompt so you never accidentally end a round
HOW IT WORKS
Each round: you and the opponent are dealt 10 cards. You take turns drawing from the stock or discard pile and then discarding a card. When your deadwood — the sum of unmatched card points — drops to 10 or less, you can knock. If it drops to 0, you go gin for a 25-point bonus. Your opponent can lay off unmatched cards onto your melds to reduce their own deadwood. First to 100 points wins the match.
PRIVACY
Nothing leaves your device. No accounts, no servers, no analytics, no tracking. Your stats and settings live on your phone and your phone only.
FOR

• Anyone who remembers their parents or grandparents playing gin rummy and wants to pick it up themselves
