About This Game

Build trains of dominoes from a central hub. Popular party variant that works great with two.

How to Play

  1. Place the 12-12 (or highest) double in the center hub
  2. Each player builds a personal train starting from the hub
  3. Play dominoes matching the end of your train, extending it outward
  4. If you can't play: draw one domino, play it if possible
  5. If still can't play: place a marker on your train (it's now 'public')
  6. Other players can play on any public/marked train
  7. Doubles must be 'satisfied' — next player must play on that double
  8. If no one can satisfy the double, play continues normally
  9. Round ends when someone plays their last domino or no one can play
  10. Score: pips remaining in your hand (lower is better)
  11. Multiple rounds; lowest total score wins
