Canasta is a popular card game of the Rummy family, typically played with four players in two partnerships using two decks of cards. The objective is to score points by melding cards of the same rank, with a "canasta" being a meld of at least seven cards. Wild cards, such as jokers and twos, can be used to help form these melds.
