Your guide to Dominoes

Read the aim of Dominoes, then make your first move. Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Check the rule that explains your first action. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.

Double-six draw dominoes, local two players with shared-screen visible hands.

Try a more deliberate round

Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Refer to the controls when needed.

The objective of a round

Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Review the board or playing area as it changes.

How to proceed

  1. Play a tile matching either open chain end.
  2. Choose which end to use.
  3. Draw only when no tile fits.
  4. Pass only with no legal tile and an empty stock.

Making selections and moves

Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Avoid pressing the same control repeatedly while a move is being processed.

An example to follow

An open 4 accepts 4–2, leaving 2 open. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Consider the next action carefully.

One detail worth checking

You cannot ignore a legal match to draw. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
