🀫 Dominoes

Dominoes rewards paying attention to what people can’t play. Every time someone draws or passes, they’ve told you something about their hand — and the player who tracks that is the player who blocks the table at the right moment.

How to play

  1. Play a tile onto either open end of the line so the touching numbers match.
  2. No matching tile? Draw from the boneyard until you can play, or pass if it’s empty.
  3. Going out scores you the total pips left in everyone else’s hands.
  4. If nobody can play, the game is blocked and the lowest hand takes the points instead.

How you win

First side to 50 points. In 2v2 you and your partner share one score.
