Learn your way around Dominoes

Dominoes gives you a focused activity to play in your browser. Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Look at what changes after your first action. 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.

Something to practise

Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Keep the objective visible.

The goal to keep in mind

Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Check the rules when you are unsure.

How a round unfolds

  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.

Getting comfortable with the controls

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. A new-round button replaces the current round.

See how the rules apply

An open 4 accepts 4–2, leaving 2 open. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Read the matching step again.

A useful caution

You cannot ignore a legal match to draw. Check the rule before repeating the action. 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.
