New rummy game

A new Rummy game! Let's create a fresh and exciting game together. Here's a concept:

Game Name: "Rummy Rush"

Objective: Be the first player to get rid of all your cards by forming valid sets and runs.

Number of Players: 2-6

Deck: Standard deck of 52 cards, without jokers.

Setup: Shuffle the deck and deal 7 cards to each player. Place the remaining cards in a face-down deck.

Gameplay:

  1. The top card from the deck is turned over and placed beside the deck. This card sets the discard pile.
  2. The player to the left of the dealer goes first, and then play moves clockwise.
  3. Each player's turn consists of two parts: Draw and Discard.
    • Draw: Take the top card from the deck or the top card from the discard pile.
    • Discard: Discard one card from your hand face-up on top of the discard pile.
  4. To form sets and runs, players can use the cards in their hand. A set consists of three or four cards of the same rank, but different suits. A run consists of three or more cards of the same suit in sequential order (e.g., 3-4-5 of hearts).
  5. If a player forms a valid set or run, they can lay it down on the table, announcing what they've laid down (e.g., "Three 7s" or "Four hearts in sequence").
  6. Other players can then add to the set or run by laying down matching cards. For example, if a player lays down three 7s, another player can add a fourth 7 to the set.
  7. If a player has no valid sets or runs, they must draw a card from the deck and discard one card from their hand.
  8. The game continues until one player has formed sets and runs that use all the cards in their hand. That player calls "Rummy Rush!" and wins the game.

Twist: To make the game more challenging and exciting, we can introduce a few twists:
