Dominoes Basics

Dominoes is a family of tile-based games. The pieces, commonly referred to as dominoes, are rectangular tiles with two square ends and a number of spots on each end. The object of domino games is to place as many dominoes as possible in a row and to knock them down.

Basic rules

The basic rules of domino are simple but require skill and strategy. The object of the game is to create enclosed spaces with dominoes by matching the end of them to the tiles in the playing area. The area of each cell is half of a domino tile and completing a cell earns the player points. Various variations of the game have different rules. For example, some allow players to place doubles anywhere on the playing board and allow them to block the line of play.

Variations

There are a number of variations of domino. The basic rules are the same: play tiles to build an empty hand, but different rules apply to the lines of play. For example, players can double a tile on either side of the line or on a single tile. The player with the highest score wins the round.

Origins

The origins of the domino game are unknown, but it is thought to have been invented in France and brought to England by French prisoners of war. It then spread to Europe and the Americas. Inuits played a similar game, using bone-like objects instead of cards. The game was first recorded in the Dictionnaire de Trevoux in 1771. Earlier, the word domino was used to refer to crude woodcuts on paper, which were popular among peasants in France.

Types

There are different types of domino games. The most popular type is known as the blocking game. The objective of blocking games is to prevent your opponent from placing tiles on the board. If you can do so, you earn points. Other types of domino games are called scoring games. In scoring games, you earn points by making certain moves and playing particular arrangements. You can also win a game by laying all of your dominoes down before your opponent does.
