Okey 101: goal and players
Play Okey 101 online on JAWNA at jawna.app. Check the goal and supported player counts before inviting your group. Read the rules even if you know the game: familiar names can have different variants, and your usual house rules may differ from the selected version.
Supported table sizes: 2 or 4 players. Choose a player count in the game settings. In partner variants, check seats and teams first. In individual formats, each player competes for their own result. The in-game How to play screen provides details. Agree on the variant before your first round together.
How to play: rules
- 106 tiles: 1 to 13 in four colours, twice, plus two fake jokers. 2 or 4 players, each alone. 21 tiles each; the starter has 22 and opens by throwing one.
- One tile is turned up; the next number of its colour is the okey, which stands for any tile. The fake jokers count as the okey’s own face.
- Each turn draw from the pile, or take the tile just thrown only if you use it this turn; lay down; throw one tile.
- Melds: sets (one number, different colours), runs (one colour in a row) and pairs (two identical tiles). Open with sets and runs worth 101, or with 5 pairs. Once open, add tiles to any set or run.
- Lay everything down and throw the last tile to win the round. Lowest score is best: the winner −101 (more with pairs, an okey throw or all 21 at once); the others score their tiles (×2 if they opened with pairs), or +202 if they never opened.
- Extra +101: throwing an okey, throwing a tile that fits a meld on the table, or holding an okey at the end.

Tips and strategy
Separate runs from equal-number sets and calculate the opening from the actual tiles rather than treating a joker as an independent bonus. Watch discards without breaking a completed group for a weak possibility. Plan your final discard before laying down the hand. Your chosen opening format affects later additions, so check the in-game requirements first. Reaching the opening threshold does not finish the hand; remaining tiles and penalties still matter.

How to play – step by step
- Draw a tile – Start your turn by drawing from the pile, or take the tile the player before you threw if you use it right away.
- Runs, sets and the okey – A run is one colour in order (4 5 6). A set is one number in different colours (9 9 9). The tile after the indicator, here the yellow 8, is the okey: it stands for any tile.
- Open with 101 – Your first lay-down must add up to 101 or more, or be five pairs. After that you can add tiles to any set on the table.
- Throw one, go out – Every turn ends by throwing one tile. Lay down all your tiles and throw the last one to win the round. Lowest total after the rounds wins.
- Kind: Okey – In plain Okey nobody lays down. Turn all 14 tiles on your rack into runs and sets (or 7 pairs), then tap Finish and throw your 15th tile. Everyone starts with 20 points and loses some each time another player finishes. Highest wins.
History & origins
Okey is a Turkish tile game in the rummy family. Its numbered tiles replace the playing cards used by many related games.
Players build groups and runs, with an indicator determining the special wild tile. The game became a familiar part of Turkish social play.
Okey 101 is a distinct scoring form with opening requirements. Its background is shared with Okey, but the two names do not mean identical rules.
