How to play

Goal

Empty your hand first, or hold the lowest pip total if play becomes blocked.

Where may a domino be played?: One end of the tile must match the pip value on an open end of the layout or eligible train.
Does tile orientation matter?: The matching half touches the layout. the other half becomes the new open value.
What if I cannot play?: Draw mode uses the boneyard when required. Block mode passes when no hand tile fits.
How do Mexican Train routes work?: Play on an eligible private or public train. a marked train remains open to opponents until its owner closes it.
Why are doubles special?: A played double may need to be satisfied by another matching tile before normal play continues.
How is a blocked round decided?: When nobody can play, compare remaining pips. the lowest total wins the round.
