full disclosure: there's a shameless plug at the end of this thread. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Overview Yaniv a fast paced traditional card game played by 2 to 5 people, with a draw/discard mechanic somewhat similar to Rummy at it's core. Played and said to be invented in the backpacking circle which aided the spread of the game around the world. How to play - the TL;DR version
Rules variation There are quite a few rule variations as is usually the case with card games of this nature. Some versions allow to quickly discard a card if the card you just drew and the card you discarded were of the same value (Slapdown rule) Some change the minimum amount needed to call Yaniv all the way from 3 to 11. Check out the links in the end for a random Yaniv rule generator that mixes all the different variants. What if I don't have friends? Got you covered. We created a version for the iPhone which is free to download, and has multiplayer match making. We have been supporting this game since 2011 and we continue to do so even though it is not making us rich.
