Why It's On The List
- Mike Fitzgerald's "Mystery Rummy" system gets some interesting polish courtesy of veteran designer Richard Borg - and ends up with a Western-themed game that plays quickly and with a great deal of style.
Tips & Tricks:
- I think that Wyatt Earp is at it's best with 3 players.
- Some folks complain about the "gunshot" mechanic - but it's a probability issue that the "rummy" nature of the game actually makes easier to figure out. The more cards that have been played to the table, the less likely a "gunshot" action is going to work.
- We always use the optional "play a Photo for free when someone else melds an outlaw" rule.
Extras
- I've written about the Mystery Rummy series before... but never about Wyatt Earp. My apologies, Mike - it's a great game that is finally getting some Mark's 100 love.

Glad you finally found this one. It's the only mystery rummy game we have, and we've enjoyed it for years. Here's my brief take: http://therealmattshow.com/wyatt-earp/
