- If you want to jointly-market
a great rummy game called Coney Island Rummy TM, contact
Frank at ideasmoney@aol.com.
Brought back by big demand,
Coney Island Rummy TM is
a board game played with a miniature deck of 52 cards, combining
(a) the great card play of the popular game of 500 Rummy with
(b) the strategy of a scrabble-type puzzle layout on which lays
are placed and connected to one another. The first player who
makes lays and goes out wins the point value of all lays made
in his or her quadrant or connected to those lays. Rounds are
played until a player reaches 500 points. Request more info,
or place your order ($18.95 for handcrafted game set), by emailing
Frank at ideasmoney@aol.com. (Solo version of game also available.)
Frank Sisco co-invented the
game (and licensed the game to a major toy company which sold
about 40,000 units under a different game name) and continues
to own the rights with the estate of the co-inventor.
