Dominoes: instructions and practice

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

The objective of a round
Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Notice how the game responds to your input.
Making your moves
- Play a tile matching either open chain end.
- Choose which end to use.
- Draw only when no tile fits.
- Pass only with no legal tile and an empty stock.
The controls to know
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Check any mode label before starting.
A useful example
An open 4 accepts 4–2, leaving 2 open. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Notice the change in the playing area.
An important reminder
You cannot ignore a legal match to draw. Check the rule before repeating the action. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
