About the game
Discover the more demanding Royal Canasta with longer runs and special melds such as samba and Bolivia. Build strong combinations and score over several deals.
Getting started
Use three decks and six jokers, with fifteen cards dealt to each player. Four-player games use partnerships.
How to play
- Draw two cards or take the discard pile when allowed by the special rules.
- Prepare matching ranks, same-suit runs or wild-card sets, then confirm the melds. You may add to melds still open.
- Lay down red threes manually. A run of seven natural consecutive cards of one suit completes a samba.
