The right place to play Kanasta

No shuffling, no dealing

The cards shuffle and deal themselves, and your hand stays sorted. You see the whole table at a glance, so decisions come faster: a hand takes about half as long as it does around a real table — two games in the time of one.

The engine carries the rules

Melds, Kanastas, buried packets, going out — the game keeps track of all of it. An invalid move is stopped gently and explained. No rule arguments at the table.

The same table on every device

Phone, tablet or desktop — the same table, the same layout. Open it in your browser, or get the iPhone and iPad app.

Kanasta in four steps

Every hand runs through these four steps. You don’t need to know Kanasta: the in-game tutorial table walks you through a full hand.

  1. Draw, or take the pile

    On your turn you draw a card from the stock or take the discard pile. The pile is always taken whole, whatever cards you hold.

  2. Lay down a meld

    Three or more cards of the same rank go to your team’s area. Jokers and twos stand in as wild cards.

  3. Make a Kanasta

    A meld of seven cards becomes a Kanasta and earns a bonus. A Kanasta built from the trump card’s rank or suit doubles that bonus. It is also the road to going out.

  4. Go out

    Once the conditions are met you discard your last card and close the hand. Scores are counted, a new hand begins.
