THE PLAYBOOK · MASYYSP
Learn the rules of Dominoes
Choose a round of Dominoes and settle into its rules. Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Look at what changes after your first action. Begin with the local players mode shown on the page. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls.
Double-six draw dominoes, local two players with shared-screen visible hands.
A small practice goal
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. Notice the feedback after each input.
The purpose of your moves
Empty your hand, or hold fewer pips when both players are blocked. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Take a moment to understand the current position.
A walkthrough of the rules
- 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.
Input guidance
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Read a button’s label before selecting it. A new-round button replaces the current round.
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. Take a moment to compare.
Check this before moving on
You cannot ignore a legal match to draw. Compare the situation with the worked example. Before your first action, say what you are trying to achieve. Then compare the result with the goal.
