Please note that if you want to play our Canasta, which is Java based, you would not be able to use Google Chrome browser. You would have to use Firefox or Internet Explorer

We can't take credit for 'a step backwards' that Google Chrome has decided to take in Terms of Java support.
We can, however, provide a list of web browsers that still offer Java support.
To use Java games, please use one of the following browsers:
Internet Explorer, FireFox or Safari.
To quickly diagnose if Java is working correctly, check if you see your Java version is listed
HERE.
If Java version does not appear (if you only see horizontal lines), your Java is not working correctly. Please install Java from www.java.com
If no Java version is visible at the above URL, please install the latest Java from http://www.java.com
After Java is installed, upon 1st entry to Java game rooms, you'd be asked to install GameColony Java 8 add-on. Please ignore any warnings during add-on installation and restart your browser after the installation.
GameColony Java add-on for Windows
GameColony Java add-on for Mac

Play canasta tournaments online
At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
