Rummikub - Third Favorite Family Game

Monday September 29, 2003
"Everybody has heard of Monopoly and Scrabble. But fewer are familiar with the third best-selling family game in the world -- Rummikub." That's the lead to a story at Israeli21c, a news web site.

Rummikub is, according to the article, produced by an Israeli company. The article indicates that more than 30 million Rummikub games have been sold around the world.

Rummikub won the Spiel des Jahres, Germany's award for Family Game of the Year, in 1980. And it's the favorite board game of a contestant in Survivor: Pearl Islands, Shawn.
