Dominoes Skills Games Rules

The game is played with 24 different dominoes, which consist of the following dominoes, where the hyphen represents the separation of the two halves of the domino and the number represents the pips: 6-0, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, 6-4, 6-5, 6-6, 5-0, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3, 5-4, 5-5, 4-0, 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 4-4, 3-0, 3-1, 3-2, 3-3, 2-0, 2-1, 2-2, 1-0, 1-1, and one blank domino 0-0.

The player who draws the highest domino starts the game. If the number of pips is even, then you draw once more.

If there are 2 players in the game they get 7 dominoes from the pile, while playing with 3 and four players you get only 5 dominoes.

The first player puts an optional domino on the table and if the sum of pips amounts to 5 or 10 he gets the corresponding number of points. The next player then puts down a domino that has to match the number of pips it meets.

If the sum of the number of pips at the ends is 5 or a multiplication of this (5, 10, 15 etc.) he gets a corresponding number of points.

If a player cannot or will not put down a “point giving” domino he has to put another one down that matches one of the ends. If you cannot put one down then you have to draw from the pile until you can put one down. If there are no more dominoes, the turn passes clockwise to the next player.

There can be maximum 4 arms on the board and you can only build from the first double domino and you can build on in all 4 directions.

The double dominoes are constantly put across and it is the total sum of pips on this domino, which counts as the value of this arm.

A game round is over when one of the players has got no dominoes left or if the game gets obstructed because no dominoes can be put down.

Then you add up the players´ points. Besides the points which all the participants have got by building 5, the player who has put down the final domino gets as many points from the opponent players, as the total of pips of their remaining dominoes sum up to.

If a round is obstructed, leaving all the players with some dominoes left, it is the player, who has got the least number of pips on his dominoes, who is chosen to be the winner. He gets the sum of points that corresponds to the difference between his and the opponents number of pips.
