RummyCircle Ethos :

At RummyCircle we are passionate about just one thing - providing the best rummy playing experience to our players. We take immense pride in our work and believe that the best way to serve our players is by listening to them. We listen to the sound of every click that our players make or don- t make when they are with us. We believe very strongly in experimenting, but in the true spirit of experiments, we insist that every new idea be either backed by data or eventually be provable by data.

Every experiment has at its genesis an idea. The RummyCircle idea hierarchy is flat and new ideas can come from anywhere. However every idea goes through the same process - vigorous debate, arguments and data validation; and every so often, from this grueling yet immensely satisfying process comes an addition to our product, operating or marketing strategy. This is the essence of life at RummyCircle.
