Dominoes is a classic tile-laying game for two or more players, where players take turns placing tiles with matching numbers next to each other. The goal is to play all of your tiles as quickly as possible while scoring points. A game ends when one player has no tiles left or no more moves are possible. The points from the remaining tiles in the opponent’s hand are then added to the winner’s score.

5 Tips for Successful Domino Play

1. Keep an eye on your doubles

Doubles (e.g., [6|6]) are key tiles in the game. Use them strategically to control the board and limit your opponent's options.

2. Maintain a wide range of numbers

Try to hold tiles with as many different numbers as possible. This keeps you flexible as the game progresses and the board changes.

3. Block your opponent

Pay attention to which numbers your opponent might be missing, and play tiles that restrict their possible moves.

4. Play weak numbers early

Use tiles with rare numbers (e.g., very high or very low values) early in the game, before the board becomes too restricted and you can’t play them anymore.

5. Think ahead

Consider what options you’ll have after your current move. A good domino player doesn’t just focus on the current turn but plans several steps ahead.
