DOMINOES
Dominoes is a classic draw dominoes game. This is one of the simpler domino games, and among the most popular as well.
GAME RULES
1. Game setup
After shuffling the dominoes, each player draws 7 tiles to make up their hand.
The remainder of the tiles make up the boneyard (or "stock"), and are held in or reserve to be drawn upon at need.
2. Game play
The player with the highest double places the first domino. Each player adds a domino to an open end of the layout, if he can. Note that the layout may flow in any direction, turning as necessary. Note also that the 5-5 and 1-1 are placed in the customary crossways orientation, though may just as properly be placed in an inline orientation.
3. Drawing Tiles
If a player is unable to make a move, he must draw dominoes from the boneyard until he can make a move. If there are no dominoes left, then the player must pass.
4. Ending A Hand
A game ends either when a player plays all his tiles, or when a game is blocked. A game is blocked when no player is able to add another tile to the layout.
5. Scoring
When a hand ends, the player with the lightest hand (i.e. the fewest number of dots on their dominoes) wins the number of sum total of points in all of his opponents hands (minus the points in his own hand, if any).
A game of Dominoes is played to a score of 100.
