Players keep track of the points that are scored during the hand and the
player that goes out of dominoes first also gets the points from the dominoes
left in the other players' hands. Count the total number of spots in each hand
and round to the nearest five. For example, if total spots equal seven then
round to five points, if total spots equal eight then round to ten points. If the
total spots equal twenty-one then the first out player receives twenty points.
The first player to 100 points wins.
BLIND DOMINOES
AGES 6+
PLAYERS: 2-5
EQUIPMENT: 1 Set of Dominoes
This is the simplest of all the domino games. Shuffle the dominoes and
each player draws one domino until all the dominoes are evenly distributed.
Players place their dominoes face down in a row. The youngest player starts
by placing the first domino from their row face up on the table. Players then
continue by turning over the first domino from their row face up. If that domino
matches suit of the ends, of the dominoes already face up on the table, then
the domino is played and the same player turns up his next domino. If the
domino does not match, then the domino is placed face down at the bottom of
the player row. His turn is now over and play continues to the next player.
Each domino is divided into two parts, or ends, each containing a set of spots.
A double domino contains matching ends (6-6, 5-5, etc.)
The first player to get rid of all their dominoes wins.
DOMINO PATIENCE
AGES 6+
PLAYERS: 1
EQUIPMENT: 1 Set of Dominoes
Object: Play all of the dominoes from your hand.
Play: Shuffle the dominoes face down and draw five. Turn these five face up
and play one of them. Now match either end of your first domino with another
from your hand. Continue to play to either end. Whenever you find that you
are left only with dominoes in your hand that will not fit on either end, you must
draw an extra domino from those still face down, and continue doing this until
you pick one that you can play.
KNOCK-OUT
AGES 6+
PLAYERS: 1
EQUIPMENT: 1 Set of Dominoes
Object: “Knock Out” all the dominoes.
Play: Turn all the dominoes face down, shuffle them well, and arrange them
end to end in one long line. Keeping them in the same position, turn them all
face up. If there are any dominoes whose ends match where they touch, you
may 'knock' them out of line and close up the gap. Carry on doing this as long
as you can.
EL CHAVO DOMINOES
AGES 6+
PLAYERS: 2-4
EQUIPMENT: 1 set of dominoes
Before play begins, all dominoes are turned face down and mixed. Each
player draws five dominoes and stands them on edge before him so that
his opponents cannot see his domino faces. The remaining dominoes
become the draw pile. Play moves to the left.
Each domino is divided into two parts, or ends, each containing a set of
spots. A double domino contains matching ends (6-6, 5-5, etc.), and the
player who draws the highest double domino places it in the center of
the table to begin the game. If no double was drawn, all dominoes are
returned to the draw pile, reshuffled, and redrawn.
The second player then tries to match one of his dominoes to one end
or side of the double. For example, if the first domino played is a double
four, the second player may add any one of his dominoes containing
four-spots on one end. The next player may play to the double four, or
he may try to match the end of the second domino played. Blanks match
other blanks. Only one domino may be played at each turn; dominoes
are placed lengthwise rather than at right angles except in the case of a
double.
If a player cannot match the spots at any open end of a row, he must draw
from the extra dominoes until he is able to do so. Should he draw the last
domino and still not be able to play, he passes and then tries again on his
next turn. A player must play a domino if he is able to do so. Doubles are
always placed crosswise to the end they match, thereby giving two new
directions in which to place dominoes.
Play continues until one player has used all of his dominoes or until no
one can play. If no further plays can be made, and all dominoes have
been drawn, the player with no dominoes, or with the least number of
points (spots) on his remaining dominoes wins the round. He subtracts
the total of his points from the total of each of his opponent's points and
scores the balance of points from each. Rounds continue until one player
scores 100 points. The game is won by the first person to score 100 or
more points.
Players match the ends of the dominoes but may play to either end or to
either side of a double. Or with the least number of points (spots) on his
remaining dominoes wins the round. He subtracts the total of his points
from the total of each of his opponent's points and scores the balance of
points from each. Rounds continue until one player scores 100 points.
The game is won by the first person to score 100 or more points.
ALL FIVES
AGES 6+
PLAYERS: 2-4
EQUIPMENT: 1 Set of Dominoes
This variation of Block and Draw Dominoes only scores if the ends add up
to a multiple of five. Each domino is divided into two parts, or ends, each
containing a set of spots. A double domino contains matching ends (6-6,
5-5, etc.).
To begin play, shuffle the dominoes and each player draws dominoes,
(7 dominoes if 2 players, 5 if 3 or 4 players). The player with the highest
double domino goes first, and then play continues to the left. Each player
plays a domino by matching the ends of the same suit (1's, 2's 3's etc.)
and trying to make the open ends add up to a multiple of five. Double
Dominoes are laid crosswise and count as the total value (double three
is six points). When a player cannot follow suit, the player draws from the
pile of remaining dominoes until they can make a play. The first player to
get rid of all their dominoes ends the hand.
