Open with 101 points, then empty your rack
101 Okey is the scoring cousin of classic Okey. Instead of hiding your hand until the end, you lay melds on the table once they add up to at least 101 points, then keep adding tiles until your rack is empty. After several hands, the lowest total wins.

Play 101 Okey online with friends
101 Okey leaves plenty of time for table talk, so at Masa the voice chat stays open while you count your melds toward 101. Play every player for themselves, or pick the team version when you create the room and sit opposite your partner.
How to play
- 1
Each player gets 21 tiles (the starter gets 22). An indicator tile sets the wild okey for the hand.
- 2
Draw from the center stack, or take the previous player’s discard if you put it on the table that same turn. Then discard one tile.
- 3
Open by laying runs and sets worth at least 101 points, or at least five pairs, in a single turn.
- 4
Once open, add tiles to any meld on the table and lay new melds on later turns.
- 5
Empty your rack first to win the hand. A game has three hands by default.

Frequently asked questions
Why 101?
It is the opening threshold: your first melds must total at least 101 points, which gives the game its name.
Can I take the discard any time?
Only if you use it on the table in the same turn, as part of your opening, a new meld or a lay-off.
Is there a team version?
Yes. Partners sit opposite each other and share a score; the option is available when you create a room.
