Domino is part of the "Eternal Classics in Pocket Format" series and is a magnetic version of the beloved eternal classic game. The case is light, small and compact. Extremely thin, it fits without trouble into any backpack or pocket, so you can take it with you everywhere, from a moving train to the lawn or a windy beach.
Shuffle all the domino tiles and place them face down on the table. Each player takes five of them without showing them to the opponent. The remaining face-down tiles form the common stock. The younger player starts by placing one of their tiles face up on the board.
From here on, the players take turns placing one of their tiles on the board, following these rules:
- Domino tiles must be placed in a line, with each new tile touching the end of the line with only one of its sides, at either one end or the other. Tiles may be placed straight or turned perpendicularly (in an L shape).
- You may only connect tiles with the same number of pips on the touching sides. • If you cannot place a tile because you do not have one with the required number of pips, you draw a new one from the stock and end your turn.
- A line of tiles can only be branched from a double tile (with equal values on both of its halves). This tile is placed crosswise (in a T shape) and can be extended from its three open ends.
When one of the players runs out of tiles, the game ends and that player wins. If the line of tiles becomes blocked and no more tiles can be placed, the player with the fewest remaining tiles in hand wins. If the players have the same number of remaining tiles, count the pips on the tiles – the player with the smaller total wins.
