Online Rummy Games Marred By Stereotypes?

Stereotypes exist for almost everything under the sun and the popular favourite rummy games are no exception. Here are a few stereotypes that irk a rummy games fan and also our take on the same. Read on and let us know if you’d like to add to the discussion…

Online rummy is more than just fun

This is one of those super stereotypes. That moment an activity is perceived as a game, people like to label it as time-pass – no need to apply your brains, just chill and play. But the truth is that rummy games or any online game for that matter has evolved today. Without strategy, without skill, or speed or precision, would it be possible to win!

It’s just not for women

C’mon now. There is enough debate around what/whether/why women can do or cannot do something. So online rummy is not above these questions. Enough number of women play online rummy and ace the game. And then, these stereotypes can rest in peace. 

Only those who understand internet can play

And that’s so not true. All online games these days are built keeping user-friendliness in mind. Rummy games are no exception. There is also the matter of rummy games being every man’s game irrespective of literacy or qualification. And hence online card game portals design the gaming interface to suit everyone who’d like to play. Subsequently, players who know how to operate mobile phones without being literate in the official sense can also play online card games effortlessly.

What sort of a career is it?

So, if you go through YouTube, you will see that there are scores of YouTubers who have composed videos on how to play online rummy, rummy techniques, how to ace tournaments and so on. Their reviews, their videos, and other internet literature from online rummy players suggest that this is proving to be a career on its own. The next time you hear someone specify rummy as a career, it must be taken seriously indeed and not seen through the lens of stereotypes.

All the sedentary play makes you lazy.

But then, can we also say that, all those who work on their laptops are becoming lazy? When playing online rummy games, stakes are high, risks are high, and people find it hard to be lazy! The mind is certainly not at sleep. And the body feels like it’s in a state of alert. As for fitness, people can carve out time, exercise and not blame online rummy or other online pursuits.

Online games are isolating

Hmm. Now that’s a question everyone likes to pose. Let us take a look at all online games and not just the online rummy games that faces stereotypes. Most of them have live play going on and that too among multiple players. The latest in these is that players can interact with each other via chat. Now where is the question of isolation? You as a player are surrounded by people wanting to interact with you, chat about cards, exchange updates on online rummy best practices and lucrative portals. So that question too can be put to rest please.

The laundry list of stereotypes can go on and on. But what people need to realize is that all online games are evolving and rummy games aren’t far behind. It is the user demand that is causing this evolution and online rummy portals are playing catch up. If online rummy and the online rummy players are changing every day, stereotyping is the last thing that can be applied to the awesome game of online rummy.
