About Dominoes
Dominoes uses the Muggins, or All Fives, scoring game. Match an exposed end, manage the shape of the chain, and look beyond the immediate play: every total divisible by five scores before the hand itself is finished.
Rules in brief
How to play Dominoes
- 01
Play a tile whose pip count matches one open end of the chain, choosing the end when both are legal.
- 02
After the placement, total the open ends; a multiple of five scores that many points immediately.
- 03
Draw when required, pass only when no play is available, and win hands and rounds on the way to the target score.
Arcade Noir validates legal actions inside the game and shows the controls for the current state. This short guide introduces the flow; the playable table remains the final rules authority.
