Meld Garden
Meld Garden is a rummy card game that plays in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, for two players on one device, or one player against a bot.
Draw, discard and build melds in a two-player rummy where the season suit scores double. Each hand turns a season card, you may knock once your loose cards total 10 or less, and the higher garden, meaning meld points minus loose cards plus any bonus, scores the difference. Play a bot at three levels or a friend on the same device, first to 100.
How to play
- Take a card: tap the stock or the top of the discard pile
- Then discard one: tap a card, then tap the pile
- Melds are three or four of a rank, or three or more in a row of one suit
- The season suit scores double in your melds this hand
- Knock when your loose cards total 10 or less
The game shows these steps as you play, the first time.

Tips
- Take the top discard whenever it completes or extends a meld, but remember your rival sees every card you pick up from the pile.
- Season-suit cards count twice inside a meld, so a season run of eight, nine and ten is worth 54 points instead of 27.
- Knock as soon as your loose cards total 10 or less: the lower loose total earns a 10-point bonus, and waiting lets your rival catch up.
What happens when someone knocks?
The other player lays off any loose cards that fit the knocker's melds. Each side's garden is its meld points, with season cards doubled, minus its loose cards. The lower loose total adds a 10-point bonus, a knock with no loose cards adds 20, and the higher hand scores the difference.
Can two people play on one device?
Yes. Choose Two players on the start card. After each turn a pass screen hides both hands until the next player taps, so neither player sees the other's cards. Two-player games keep no best score, while games against the bot record your best winning margin.
