The dominoes gaming pieces form a set, often referred to as a deck or pack. The traditional Sino-European set consists of 28 tiles, known colloquially as bones, cards, tiles, tickets, stones, or spinners. Each tile is divided into two square ends by a line, marked with spots or left blank. Domino sets are versatile gaming devices, akin to playing cards or dice, enabling a variety of games. Extended sets, such as double 9 and double 12, are used for games like Mexican train and Chicken Foot. Different countries enjoy their own unique domino games: England with Muggins (All fives), Scandinavian countries with Bergen, Mexico with Mexican train, and Spain with Matador.
The earliest mention of dominoes traces back to Song Dynasty China, with the game reaching Italy in the 18th century. The evolution from Chinese to modern dominoes remains a mystery.
General Rules of Dominoes:
Blocking Game:
The simplest dominoes variant is a two-player game using a double six set. The 28 tiles are shuffled face down to form the stock or boneyard, and each player draws seven tiles. Players keep their tiles on-edge, visible only to themselves, but can see how many tiles opponents hold. The game begins with one player laying down a tile. The starting tile varies by game; in Muggins, it's the highest double (6-6), in Bergen, it's 0-0, and in Mexican train, it's the next lower double. Players take turns extending the line of play by matching tile values. The game ends when a player plays their last tile or the game is blocked, with the player causing the block scoring points based on the remaining tiles.
Scoring Game:
Players earn points through specific configurations, moves, or by emptying their hand. Most scoring games are variations of the draw game. In Muggins (All fives), points are scored when the open ends sum to multiples of five. In Bergen, points are scored when the open ends are equal. If a player fails to call "domino" before laying a tile, and another player calls it afterward, the first player must draw an extra tile. In Mexican train, the double zero tile scores 50 points.
Draw Game:
In the draw game, players can draw tiles from the stock before playing. The game's score is the sum of pips in the losing player's hand plus those in the stock, typically leaving two tiles in the stock. The draw game is commonly referred to as simply "dominos."
