How to Play
Learn how to play
Basic Rules:
The player with the highest double ([6|6]) goes first by placing that double in the center.
The game continues until one player places their last domino, winning the round. If no player can make a move and the game is blocked, the player with the lowest total of pips (dots) on their remaining dominoes wins the round.
The winner of the round scores the total number of pips on all opponent's remaining dominoes.
The game typically continues for multiple rounds until a team reaches the game score setup, 80, 100, 120 or 200 points.
Dragging and dropping a dominoe
When is your turn, click and drag a dominoe to the board and drop it in the desired location
In this example, the dominoe was dropped above the [5,2]. see below the result.
Visual Indicators
Players in turn will be highlighted in orange and will have a green glow. If the game is set to be timed, a countdown in seconds will appear beneath their name.
If a player is blocked (have no options to play), its name will glow in red
The player with most wins will earn the crown badge
If the helper option is turned on, a hand icon will appear in the player with the hand (player with the best chance of winning the game in progress), and the dominoes that are not playable will dim when is your turn.
