The High-Spirited Electronic Card Game

...That Fits in Your Pocket!

OBJECT OF THE GAME

The 1st player to reach 100 points wins the
game. You win hands by Gin, Knock, or Undercut.

GIN The goal in Gin Rummy is to be the 1st
meld all 10 of your cards (called “GIN”). A “meld”
is achieved by (a) grouping 3 or 4 cards of the
same rank, or (b) making a sequence of 3 or more
cards of the same suit. (Note: Aces are only
considered low; 1 point) The points gained from a GIN are
the total of the unmelded cards in the opponent’s hand plus 25 points.

KNOCK If at any time during a round you have unmelded cards whose face value
totals 10 points or less, you will have 5 seconds to “KNOCK” should you decide to do
so. When knocking, your resulting points would be the difference between the
computer’s unmelded points and your unmelded points.

UNDERCUT If you KNOCK and the computer has fewer points (from its unmelded
cards) in its hand than you have in yours, the computer receives the difference
between its points and yours, plus 25 points. The same thing occurs if the computer
KNOCKs and you have fewer points.

TO PLAY:

1. Press ON•SORT to wake the computer.

2. Press and hold NEW GAME to start a new

4. Use the SCROLL ARROWS and the
DISCARD button to select a card to

display.

5. After the computer’s turn, draw a card
from either the deck or the pile with the
DECK or PILE buttons. Discard
again, etc.

6. If you have a GIN, discard in the normal
manner and the win will be recognized by
the computer. If you have unmelded
cards with a face value of 10 or less, the
computer will give you five seconds to
KNOCK after you discard.

7. Press ON•SORT to deal a new hand.
