Use a standard double-six domino set
Shuffle all dominoes face down
Each player draws 7 tiles
Place the remaining tiles face down as the boneyard
Decide who starts, usually the player with the highest double
If no one has a double, the player with the highest tile starts
The first player places one tile in the center
Players take turns matching one end of a tile to a matching open end on the layout
Tiles must match by the same number of pips
If a player cannot play, they draw one tile from the boneyard
If the drawn tile can be played, it may be played immediately
If not, the player keeps it and passes the turn
Continue taking turns until one player uses all their tiles
If the boneyard is empty and a player cannot play, they pass
The round ends when one player goes out or both players are blocked
Score the round by counting the pips left in the opponent’s hand
Play multiple rounds until a target score is reached
The player with the highest total score wins
