1. Gather the necessary materials. You will need a set of Dominoes, a flat surface, and at least two players.
2. Shuffle the Dominoes and deal out seven Dominoes to each player. Place the remaining Dominoes face down in the middle of the table. This is the “boneyard.”
3. The player with the highest double Domino (the highest number of Dots on both ends of the Domino) begins the game. If no one has a double Domino, then the player with the highest single Domino begins the game.
4. The player places the Domino on the table and then continues to play the game by placing Dominoes that match the Numbers of the end Dominoes. For example, if the first Domino has a 5 and a 6, then the next player must place a Domino with either a 5 or a 6 on one end.
5. If a player cannot place a Domino, then they must draw from the boneyard until they can play. If a player is unable to play after drawing from the boneyard, then the Turn passes to the next player.
6. The game ends when a player has placed all of their Dominoes. The player with the lowest total number of Dots on their remaining Dominoes is the winner.
